Can I have 40 cards in my MTG deck?
Absolutely, you can have a 40-card deck in MTG, but it's typically for limited formats like Draft or Sealed. Most constructed play formats (like Standard or Commander) usually require a minimum of 60 or 100 cards, respectively. But if you're just having fun or playing casually, feel free to rock that 40-card deck!

40 cards? Sure, if you're playing limited. Otherwise, you're shortchanging yourself. Always go 60+ for those sweet, sweet strategies.
No way, that's rookie numbers! Go big or go home. 60 cards minimum. Make your deck a force to be reckoned with.
