I remember when Magic the Gathering had no rules on deck size. It suggested between 30 and 60. But it also said it could be anything.
That didn't last very long lol
It's still unlimited (with a minimum) for constructed as far as I'm aware, except EDH at exactly 100. You just have to be able to shuffle the entire deck unassisted without resorting to piles and stuff. It would also be a terrible strategy to dilute your best cards since there can only be four copies. I'm sure there's some crazy gimmick deck that works with 250 cards that only Shaq can play.
So I use a shuffler after a bad accident and some nerve damage. Am I permanently banned from MtG tournaments or do I gotta take asscrack photos first?
The asscrack photos would probably help, but I'm sure they'd let you use a proxy shuffler who wasn't otherwise playing in the tournament. Maybe that's the loophole. Get into a terrible car accident, and hire a giant to shuffle for you.
I bet if I just use a reasonable sized deck and my usual electronic dealie I can get banned faster
Well I guess I'm shaq. Well. On arena.
If you take 4 60 card decks that all have synergistic opening lines..... That's 240. Add 10 one drop utility cards and boop you have a 250 card deck. I've done it in arena and they are very fun to play.
Could you use the handle Gheorghe Mureșan and exclusively use decks over 300 cards? You'd have to learn Romanian for the bit to work though.
By anything, did they mean in terms of card limit or literally anything? Cause if it was the latter, then I can imagine the chaos
I started off when the game was still brand spanking new; they had no limits on either deck size or what could be in it. Half the cards I own are now banned in tournaments because I haven't bought new cards since high school (I graduated in 2003 for reference) and I had thought the deck size was limited, too, now but another poster points out that is still unlimited for the most part.
There are minimum limits, but maximum is generally more of a physical one
