What happens when you run out of cards in MTG?
Gone are the days when you could safely play with no cards left in your deck. In MTG, run out of cards to draw? Game over, my friend. You lose. Better keep an eye on that deck size!

In Magic The Gathering, if you can't draw a card because your library (deck) is empty, you lose the game immediately. It's a rule that prevents games from going on indefinitely and adds a strategic layer to how you manage your deck.
Actually, running out of cards doesn't necessarily mean you lose - that's only if you can't draw a card on your turn. If you run out mid-turn but don't need to draw, you keep playing. It鈥檚 all about the draw step!
No cards left = You're out. Simple as that.
