Thoughts
It's going to be interesting to see if Lurrus is allowed to remain a staple of Vintage. If it is, the split between Lurrus Doomsday and Street Wraith Doomsday will continue to grow wider as cards get printed. (The fact that we'll continue to get Permanent Cards with mana value 2 or less printed into Magic tells me that Lurrus will eventually be banned. But I digest.)
I tried out Thoughtseize and have yet to be impressed by it. I'm sure there are cases where it does better than Duress, but so far it's just cost me two life to do the same thing. And it could be Misdirected. Just saying, Mirror Match opponents. 👀
