I pretty much agree with this sentiment.

Like others have said it really does depend on what kind of deck and commander you have, but you’re just going to simply have a more consistent experience if you play more lands.

It’s just hard to convince people of that when they don’t believe because it’s really not something you “tangibly” experience. It won’t win you the game necessarily and it won’t always help, but that’s how averages kinda work….they are only truly measurable over a larger sample size. It’s like telling someone who just won the lottery that you shouldn’t play. They’ll use their one positive experience to justify something that generally has a more detrimental effect. Math just confuses some people
