Summary: A short soak + cold rinse + no‑heat tumble can help. But many players simply throw them—heat is the real risk.


Pre‑soak approach

  • Brief “snake oil”/conditioner soak per instructions.
  • Cold water rinse; press—don’t wring.
  • Tumble dry with no heat in a pillowcase; or place on top of a running dryer (heatless) to air‑warm.

Or skip the soak

  • Air‑dry and throw—Kingslayers loosen quickly with play.

Extra DIY options (gentle)

  • Mild laundry soap, extra rinse cycles, pillowcase tumble with towels.

Avoid

  • High heat. Carpets can shrink; seams can stress.

While you wait, practice with a controllable setup

Final word

Keep the structure. The throws finish the break‑in.
