Is your Magic collection too big for a fat pack box? Are your cards in dissaray? Many Magic: The Gathering players ask the question, “How should I store and organize my collection?” This is a question whose answer will vary depending on what kind of collection you have.
For the purposes of this video, I’ll be talking about organizing and storing larger, long-term collections.
Please remember: this is meant as a guideline, and not an absolute rule. The precise nature of how you organize and store your cards will be personal to you and your needs.

I got a 1600 card box and I am going to use it for old cards and then use my origins and amonkhet builders tool kit boxes to store standard cards, because I dont usually have large collections
If you have a lot of cards, sorting by CMC can help with deck-building.
Thanks this really helped
At 3:55 for the ad card part what I do is I get penny sleeves (if ppl don’t know it’s literally avg 1 buck for 100 loose sleeves, mainly use to sleeve common/uncommon no to low value foils to keep them in good condition but good to sleeve ads and make as tabs) for them and put between them. Helps a lot for my sorting ways.
Are there alternatives to BCW cardboard boxes? I can’t get my hands on them where I live, or I would have to buy them over the internet where they’d cost me 5€. It doesn’t matter if it’s plastic
This was useful! Thanks!
I just got a large box of magic cards from amazon, and I need a good storage solution. 🙂
yet have you made the other video for sorting the smaller collection
I’m curious to see how the new BitBox and Bitbox Mobile would work with organizing magic cards. You can order add-on foam for protection. Has anyone tried these yet?
instead of dividers, stick 2 commons together so the colour protrudes above the rest by half an inch, you will go to your colour instantly rather than reading it all.
Honestly even though no one will see this I just wanted to say that watching old mtg youtubers and their old videos give me such nostalgia
PLEEEES MAKE ORZHOV/BANT EXALTED EDH!!!
I love your channel. Recently started playing again and I find all your videos helpful, fun and engaging. Thank you!
How can i do for common and uncommon card who cost many money like aether vial, lightning bolt or path to exile ? I put sleeve or i take a binder ?
Careful when storing your cards in sleeve sheets binders, if you store your binder vertically, the weight of cards will bend the sleeves and also your cards
I sort my Pokemon cards by type, and alphabetize, and also keep the evolution cards with each other. This has proven challenging since some sets have a Pokemon as one type but another type in another set. And some Pokemon evolve into multiple different Pokemon of different types. It’s a constant and neverending effort of moving a card from one place to another.
I’m not into Magic the Gathering but this applies to all card games. I collect yugioh cards and the way I store my bulks are in a regular collection binders with binder sleeves. Don’t ask why I did that cause I started doing that like 13 years ago. I really wanna remove the bulks and separate them in sets, but the fact is I have so much binder sleeves that I have no clue what to do with them since I store my rares and holo cards in actual quality binders. I store everything on my little desk where everything looks so clustered. It requires a lot of room if you wanna build a big card collection. Obviously if I purchase a shelf like that my room will be full.
I am putting my whole Ixalan series in my binder
Nice way to sort and store. Here is my way to sort my cards (rare and myth). I sort them by colors and then by type. For example : Black card.
Enchantment together,
Creature together (only rare)
Instant,
Sorcery,
Legendary creature (for commander purpose)
Mythic (Instant, enchant, whatever)
For multi-colored card I sort them by “Guild” such as all the azorius goes together and I separate mythic and Legendary again. In multicolored I don’t sort by card type. I donc have enough card which still justified this structure for now.
For 3+ colored I put them together without any sorting excpet for legendary and mythic (for commander purpose again).
Then I separate my lands card by “guild” colors or duo-colors. I also put common lands which are ofter used in commander in those binder.
Oh and I forgot, planeswalker are regroup together. I dont look after their colors too.
For the common and uncommon, I sort them the same way you do Tolarian ! 😀 I just wonder if it’s valuable to keep a playset of each common/uncommon ? :/ (some are usefull… some are just useless). How can I process with un-wanted common/uncommon which are ofter worthless ?
Am I the only one who penny sleeves commons just so they don’t get edgeware in the boxes?
Where did you find the set symbol templates?
glad i found this video,i finally decided to short my cards but i have litterally two full trash bags of common and uncommons and i didn’t know where to start.I got back in mtg after a few years of absence and i am so excited!!!!
I am brand new at playing Magic and just starting out collecting cards. How do I know what is considered common or uncommon? Thank you!
Honestly, I use the bundle (fatpack) players guide and sort cards by print/collector number, but still put all rares/mythics in their own binder with same rule of collector number. I used to go by Alpha, but yes it was a time sink hole…
if you always played draft, wouldnt you have a ton more cards because youre always opening packs?
