D&D 5E Which MTG Setting would you want as an official D&D Setting?

To be fair, I actually don't know of many popular books/shows that have a school meant for magic with clearly defined Colleges, beyond Harry Potter with its Houses. Especially where they essentially match personality types to your College/House.

Magic: The Gathering’s Strixhaven is more than just a Hogwarts pastiche

But it’s definitely a big Harry Potter goof, also

I don't think Harry Potter is the only inspiration for Strixhaven, but its clearly a pretty big one. Mage Tower for example is pretty clearly inspired by Quidditch.

Mage Tower is inspired by college football and capture the flag, but with none lethal spells, it's nothing like quadditch.

and the Colleges of Strixhaven are very different from Hogwart Houses, the Colleges are like American College system, but with magic, Horwart Houses are just dormitories with inter house competition.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’d love to see MTG’s latest set “Adventures in the Forgotten Realms” adapted to a D&D setting! I think it could really work!

it'd be great if the AFR could get a setting book

look the idea predates both and it is a bad idea for a full setting, maybe a subsetting.

I fully intend to repurpose it for Arcanix in Eberron.

I seriously can't think of a fantasy property more similar to Strixhaven than Hogwarts. If there is one, I'd like to hear it. But Harry Potter has some pretty obvious influences here.

Wizards 101 MMORPG was released in 2012 and played by my son. Its the first thing I thought of when I saw Strixhaven
