Just one word: balance. Too many cantrips and you'll be all dressed up with nowhere to go. Aim for a healthy mix!

Honestly, it's all about the deck. I run a blue-red spellslinger deck that's almost 1/3 cantrips. It's all about synergy. If your deck loves spells and draws, pump those numbers up!

In Magic The Gathering, there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer to how many cantrips are too many. It really boils down to your deck's strategy and what you're trying to achieve. Cantrips are great for deck thinning and keeping cards flowing into your hand. However, if you're packing your deck with too many cantrips and not enough substance, you might find yourself cycling through your deck without actually impacting the game. A good balance is key.
