Hey thinking of a budget deck idea but I never have ran a deck with a mana curve topoff of 4. Weenie esk deck. I am thinking 22 lands but could I go down Lower? Like 20? Most of my decks have at least 24 so this is new territory
60% black 40% red no artifacts. Only 4 cards have double black 1 colorless everything else is like 1 red one colorless. 8-1 cmc 15-2 cmc 8-3 cmc and 7z 4 cmc
Without seeing the deck and it being 2 colors. I'd say 22-23
The 20 lands deck is just not easy to pull off right now.
Delver got away with it because it could dig, free spells, and low curve.
Decks just need to want to hit that 4th mana on turn 4 in the current environment.
Assuming no extra card draw
Don't go lower than 22 (4 mana on turn 4 or 5 usually)
Don't go over 7 4 drops (this usually gets you 1 per game)
If you've got some card draw I still wouldn't go under 22 but it means you don't necessarily have to go up to 23 or 24 so you can afford to run a couple more 4 drops if necessary.

Is the deck mono colored or 2+?

edit: nvm, don't post your decklist here. But still, it's a hard question to answer without seeing a decklist.
