Can you run MTG Arena from a flash drive?
Technically, you can run MTG Arena from a flash drive, but it's not as straightforward as you might hope. You'll need a decent-sized USB with enough space for the game and its updates. You'll also have to deal with slower load times compared to running it directly from an SSD or HDD. And remember, always eject the flash drive safely to avoid corrupting the game files!

Sure, you can, but why would you want to torture your flash drive like that? MTG Arena updates frequently, and those updates aren't small. Plus, the read/write speed of a flash drive isn't ideal for gaming. Just save yourself the headache and install it on your computer.
I've done it! Had MTG Arena running on a flash drive while I was bouncing between computers. It works, but expect longer loading times and make sure you've got a good USB drive. Also, keep an eye on those updates; they can eat up your space real fast.
