I'm surprised the Strixhaven Alternative cover hasn't been revealed yet.

This regular cover is much better than the Witchlight one, so I'm OK if there isn't an alternate on this one, although I'd love to see a cool magical textbook cover along the lines of what Candlekeep got.

While it wont encourage me to buy it, I would be fascinating to see if they have the courage to release this as a "Everyone is playing a spellcaster" setting.

I hope so! That is how I play the Feywild. I would love some official thoughts and suggestion.

The vast majority of people on Earth, when they hear "magical school sourcebook" are going to think "Harry Potter." Everything we've heard so far is marketing, which is about introducing the product to customers.

No one within the marketing department is comparing Strixhaven to Potter. Blaming that error on Wizards is bizarre.

It's just lazy people on the internet who have ignored months of Strixhaven content who continually insist it is something it is not.

I am very lazy. It’s true.

"Your a Wizard Harry!"

"No I'm a Birb."

Yer a planeswalker Harry!

A magic-school setting? If that's true (especially if it is "Potter-esque") I might actually be interested!

Also, if it IS centered on spellcasters attending the same school, I'd totally get Candlekeep mysteries for scholarly adventures.

If it isn't? Then meh don't care.

I say that these two could combine VERY WELL.

"Hey, it's like a cartoon you may have never heard of and a kind-of hated Netflix show" isn't the best foot to lead with in marketing.

Wait! Is this not Harry Potter the D&D experience?

Missed a trick there. Pass.

It totally is. You can even play it up that way.
