40 cards minimum for a MTG draft deck. But remember, that's just the start. Strategy wins the game, not just card count.

Honestly, just stick to 40 cards. Adding more usually messes up your mana curve and makes the deck less consistent. Keep it tight and focused.

In Magic The Gathering draft format, the minimum number of cards in a deck is 40, including lands. Don't forget, though, you'll probably pick up around 45 cards during the draft portion before you add basic lands to reach your deck size. It's all about finding that perfect balance in your deck between lands, creatures, and spells!
