They may generate entirely new cards, or combine with a copy effects to shuffle entirely new cards into the deck.

These are assumed to function identically to explicit shuffle into deck effects.

Around the battlefield are various important UI elements, such as each player s hand, deck place them into the deck without destroying Destroying a minion or weapon removes it from play. Only minions currently on the battlefield and weapons that are currently equipped can be destroyed. Discarding a card removes it directly from the player s hand and them.

Trivia
- The phrasing of shuffle into deck effects does not explicitly mention the reshuffling of the player`s deck, likely in order to keep the card text as short as possible. Be that as it may, this is believed to be functionally insignificant since it is not possible for the player to see the order of cards in their deck without drawing them. Those effects which draw directly from the player`s deck do so randomly and thus are not affected by the order of cards within the deck.
