Magic fans can finally stop refreshing listings, as Secrets of Strixhaven’s Commander decks are finally back in stock at Amazon after weeks of being frustratingly hard to find.
A couple of decks are even undercutting the resale market at the moment. Both Lorehold Spirit and Witherbloom Pestilence are currently sitting around $10 cheaper than market price on the MTG marketplace, TCGplayer.
The outlier is Silverquill Influence, which isn’t available individually at MSRP right now, and that’s not surprising; it’s definitely the strongest of the five.
If that’s the one you want, the only reliable option at the moment is the full five-deck bundle for around $250.
Given that Silverquill alone is hovering at $85 or more on resale, that bundle pricing actually holds up better than it first looks.
This return comes at a good time. Magic: The Gathering’s latest visit to Strixhaven is shaping up to be one of the strongest sets of 2026 so far, and yes, it arguably outclasses Lorwyn Eclipsed if early impressions are anything to go by.
As expected, the set launches with five preconstructed Commander decks, each built around one of Strixhaven’s colleges.
These are designed for Commander, still the game’s most popular format by a distance, and they’re a solid entry point whether you’re upgrading or just want something playable out of the box.
One thing worth flagging before you buy, expectations need adjusting. Each deck includes the usual setup, a full 100-card deck, a cardboard deck box, and a strategy insert.
What you don’t get anymore is the Collector Booster sample, which used to be a nice bonus but has quietly disappeared here.
Short version, stock is back for the new Strixhaven precon decks, prices are (mostly) sensible, and if you’ve been waiting this one out, this is probably the moment to jump with release incoming on April 24.
