And he brought it in wearing an actual fedora to boot
I heard it's not the size of your deck but how you use it .
- And always wash your hands after playing with your deck.
  
  Never show anyone your deck unless they verbally agree to see it.
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?
  
  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.
- 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.
Does it though? Nobody trying to actually compete is going to bring a super large deck. It's only going to hurt your odds of drawing what you need.
- Most people surrendered their match because shuffling took so long.
- Why would the odds change if the ratio of cards are the same? You don’t just build a large deck with filler.
  
  According to a quick google, you can only have up to three of the same cards in a Yu-Gi-Oh deck. So you can't keep the ratios the same.
  I don't play Yu-Gi-Oh, but I play Magic, and it's similar there, but you can have up to four of any card.
  I imagine most trading card games are like this, otherwise you could just make a deck of only the most OP card or something. Not exactly fun to build, or play, or play against.
  
  Because there are lots of other rules governing the makeup of a deck.
- I played Magic back in the day and the goal was to play the smallest deck possible.
  Although I do have to say this guy would have easily beaten my millstone/control deck. I would have just resigned as soon as he sat down.
only pot of greed
- But what does it do???
  
  The deck was a miller, basically every card was centered around forcing the other player to draw. Most cards that make your opponent draw also have you draw, but with a 2222 card deck you just draw and draw and draw, until they had no more cards to draw, then they lose.
Dude on the right looking like Data in The Long Goodbye.
- I see it.
- And just like Data, he plays to draw.
Ya gotta get to the several hearts of the cards, Yug’!
- The Cards is a worm, at least 7 hearts in there Yugi. Drawing 6 of exodus left foot and getting PISSED
