Cycling is going through your deck to get closer to the next reshuffle, by either drawing or discarding cards from the deck. Top-decking cards, especially stop cards, can slow down cycling. Fast cycling, such as with Chancellor, lets you get to your newly-bought cards rapidly; when your cycling is slowed down, such as by an opponent's Ghost Ship, you can spend a very long time without seeing your new cards.
- Engines always have fast cycling
- Cards which draw a lot of cards, such as Embassy or Envoy cause fast cycling
- Cellar, Warehouse, and Storeroom allow you to cycle a lot of cards but don't increase your handsize
