I have at least 18 decks made at all times. Usually more and always building more.
I have 1 home brew but I don't really count it as I keep it hidden on my desk. Everything else is higher tier decks. The exceptions being probably Walking Dead, Affinity, Enchantress and Pox not usually sure where the fall on competitive scales. A list of most of them are in my sig but tcgplayer limits you to only saving 18 lists. My current constraint is Force of Will I need probably 12 more to finish my next 3 decks.
I currently own more then:
120 Duals
160 Fetches
I have at least:
40 Wasteland
24 Force of Will

Then a proxied ANT deck for practice. Working my way up to the full thing.
I only competitively play and work on two decks, one in Legacy and the other in Pauper: Manaless Dredge (shell plus most variations, including Blue Manaless Dredge) and Affinity respectively. Other than that, I have 10 casual decks. Of those 10, Pod, Wake, Tron, and Burn see the most play.
I normally have 2 competitive Legacy decks ready to go;
1 non-U SFM based deck (Death & Taxes atm), but it could be Maverick or Junk; also have everything for Nic Fit which I could build without any overlap with D&T
1 U-based deck; for the past while it's been Miracles but I could run UWR Delver or Esperblade too. Just traded a bunch of Modern stuff into Reanimator and Food Chain pieces so going to start toying with some combo for a bit.
I only have 1 playset of most things as I tried to downsize a bit a couple years ago; sold my Goyfs and Lilianas though (right before the MM price spike... :( ), so outside of borrowing / proxy-ing I can't run BUG Delver / Shardless :P
But yeah D&T and Miracles are my main squeezes :)
Miracles, and various Black Delver variants. BUG, Grixis, 4-colour, with and without Stifles and Standstills. Currently it's on Grixis + Tropical Island for Deathrite Shaman, and maybe some Decays in the board. My parnter has Dredge, and most of a Loam deck, but we're lacking major things for it, so it probably doesn't count.
In Modern I have Storm variants, including my Ascension combo deck, UW Tron, most of RG Tron, missing a pair of Karns, and BGx decks, with my partner having Twin. UR Twin, not the bad versions.
We also have Standard decks, but they don't count.
I personally have burn with fetches built at all times, UWR (whatever build of the week that doesn't have jaces) and most of mono green post built personally, in my household we also have goblins/d&t, imperial painter, another full built burn deck, punishing maverick(or Jund, most of the time Jund) and RWBx build, along with dead guy ale(no vial), also have access to most blue and non blue staples short of tabernacle, the abyss, nether void, and a few other overly expensive staples
Has anyone actually broke down and sold off their casual/non-competitive decks? I have thought about doing this in order to pick up a Legacy staple or more SB tech. Aside from that reason, the minimalist in me likes the idea of only keeping my main decks. On the other hand, I enjoy having casual decks to let friends play with. I am certain this is a common phenomenon and there are a lot of valuable cards just sitting around in underplayed decks.
I don't have casual decks, and most of my friends only play competative. This also means that our casual play is really play testing. Even if I would have some casual decks with staples in them, and I decided to break them up, I would not sell those staples. When I have acquered certain cards, I tend to keep them (even if I don't play them)
In addition to the legacy decks I mentioned before, I also have my fair share of pure casual decks lying around. (for that other playgroup :laugh:)
Current examples being rats, myr, g/x walls, 5cromat and sisay. They hog some amount of stamples too.
I've no intention to dismantle them. I'm kinda collecting rat cards and I'll also continue to buy every new g/w legend they print at least once.
I proxy casual decks... Have a silly URg deck that works on Razorfin Hunter, Gelectrode and Guttersnipe abusing Curiosity/Keen Sense (hence the green splash). I like to goof off from time to time.
I play a different deck every week, cycling through:
Deadguy, maverick, DnT, rock, UW stoneblande, nic fit, zombardment, team italia, goblins, imperial painter, combo elves, MUD, enchantress, burn, miracles, false cure, bomberman.
DnT was my jam for a long time. I go play more painter and elves now, though.
I'm working towards goblin stompy. I play Brago and Daretti in EDH, Lin Sivvi and Ezuri in TL.
I have actually got rid of a lot of cards and have just kept a single playset of most expensive cards the exception being a few cards, like wasteland, that you just need to have more than four copies to support additional decks.
I have three competitive Legacy decks built at any one time these are usually - Miracles/Stoneblade, D&T/Maverick and Jund/Pox/Lands and also my wife's foiled Burn deck.
My collection also has
Modern Affinity, Patriot and Tron decks built and Rock that needs to steal a few cards from Legacy (Decay/Lilly) to be playable
3 EDH Decks
5 Pauper Decks
Tribal decks that could quickly be changed to Tier 1 Legacy like Goblins (Missing Waste/Port), Merfolk (No Force)
5 casual decks e.g. Vampires, Mono-Blue Control, Elves (an older Mono-green Natural Order build)
Bulk buying sleeves helps as it makes it easy to move cards between Legacy/Modern decks for tournaments.
