How many Shadowborn Apostle 's do you think you might need to work in a 60 card deck?

Define 'work'. Work competitively - you can't.

Work at all? Well you hope you can have 6 played by T3 which means 6 cards out of 9 (7 cards T1, 8 cards T2, 9 cards T3) need to be Apostles which is equal to 40 in 60.

What i actually mean is how many you suggest. i just want it to be a casual Constructed deck because my friends are tired of playing against the same decks every time. haha

I said - optimally from a statistics viewpoint is 40 out of 60 cards being the apostle.

I guess if you consider mulligans then you could go down to like 30 in 60 being Apostle.

Because you're casual and don't care about getting your demon on turn 3 every game, I would go with about 22. You'll see them just as often as your lands, and don't have to rely solely on them as your win condition. Without any form of recursion, you'll be able to pop off 3 demons and have chump blockers to spare.
