Is a deck of cards arranged any less randomly after a game of War? Why?

Question

I’d typically assume that after most card games, the cards become at least semi-ordered in some way, necessitating shuffling. However, after a standard game of war, I can’t quite figure out how the arrangement would become less random, since the winning and losing card stay together. If they’re indeed mathematically “less random,” after the game, why?

Answer 1

For war it would not change the order. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t shuffle tho just for the sake of greater variety in the game because theoretically war would lead to games with similar patterns of cards over and over.

Any card game where you choose which card you play will likely make the deck less random.
