What brand of sleeves to use for mini-cards?
I usually sleeve cards with dragon shield clear matte but I'm looking to sleeve some mini-cards for Nemesis. So I wanted to know which brand you all use to help me decide.

I like Sleeve Kings for lower-quality sleeves (which is all I use for most games). According to the list they make the correct size for Nemesis: https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/164572/card-sleeve-sizes-games
For normal-sized cards I used Ultra Pro but found some of them rather sticky. Not sure if they also have smaller sized sleeves
Yeah that's why I use dragon shields for normal cards. Tried out some cheaper first when i started to sleeving normal card but the feel of premium sleeves was worth the price difference for me.
I recommend the website sleeveyourgames, it tells you the size and quantities you need. Here is the link for Nemesis
You aren't going to find anything as thick as dragon shield for that size. Personally I recommend the Gamegenic Matte sleeves, I think they are great. Note that for gamegenic "matte" means anti glare, not a rugged back. Both sides of the sleeve are the same.
Thanks for the recommendation! Was already contemplating anti-glare sleeves for shuffle-feel after some of my Youtube research. Was looking at the Arcane Tinmen matte sleeves but didn't find anything about Gamegenic ones, they seem like a great choice!
I use Gamegenic matte sleeve of all sizes for all my games. They are the best combo of price and quality in my opinion.
Totally agreed. I've been using them on all new games and gradually re-sleeving the old ones :P
For games I know I will play a ton, I usually get Ryker Sleeves https://www.rykergames.com/ since I love the dimpled backs which makes shuffles really easy. For nearly everything else, and especially hard to find size then I use Swan Panasia sleeves. https://www.swanpanasiasleeves.com/
These looks perfect. Thanks!
I'm sad that Asmodee killed off FFG's sleeves, but the GameGenic sleeves have been holding up for me just fine and seem to be regularly in stock.
