What tokens do I need for Magic The Gathering?
The tokens you'll need for MTG totally depend on your deck strategy! If you're running a deck that pumps out lots of creature tokens, like Goblins or Elves, you'll want a bunch of those specific creature tokens. For decks that utilize treasure tokens (for that sweet, sweet mana), make sure to stack up on those. Essentially, look at your deck's mechanics—anything that says 'create a token' is your cue to grab those specific tokens.

Honestly, you'll figure it out as you play more. When I first started MTG, I didn't bother with tokens. Played a few games, realized I was summoning a ton of Saprolings and had to borrow tokens from friends. Now, my token collection rivals my actual deck. Pay attention to what your deck does in games, and start building that token collection based on your most common plays.
Just use dice or anything handy! Who needs specific tokens, am I right? If your creature token doesn't have any special abilities apart from being a humble 1/1, just grab a die or a small object and put it into play. Keep it simple and save the space in your deck box.
