As a brief mathematical aside (feel free to check my work, Quandrix nerds), here is a short comparison of non-generic/staple overlaps with the appropriate predecessor across each Secrets of Strixhaven Commander deck, not counting Sol Ring or Arcane Signet nor generic/staple lands: 7 cards from Silverquill Influence overlap with Silverquill Statement 10 cards in Witherbloom Pestilence to Witherbloom Witchcraft 10 cards in Prismari Artistry to Prismari Performance 5 cards in Lorehold Spirit to Lorehold Legacies 9 cards in Quandrix Unlimited to Quantum Quandrix Seeing the data laid out as such, it's hard to justify my vibes-based analysis as anything more than a poorly calibrated vibes antenna

I got your next brew here
