How many MTG booster packs are needed to make a deck?

ReoccuringRace·7 months ago

In the world of Magic The Gathering, a standard deck requires at least 60 cards. While you could theoretically create a deck from about 10 booster packs (since each pack contains around 15 cards), it wouldn't be very cohesive or strategic. For a well-rounded deck, especially if you're just starting out, it's not about the quantity but the quality and synergy of the cards you pick. So, buying specific singles or a preconstructed deck might be a better route than hoping booster packs alone will do the trick.

Honestly, building a proper deck from scratch with just booster packs is a bit of a gamble. You're better off getting a starter deck and then enhancing it with cards from boosters.
