What do bracket 1 and 2 Commander decks run?
Bracket 1 and 2 decks on Moxfield run a median of 36 lands, 10 ramp, 9 card advantage, 9 targeted disruption and 2 mass disruption, across 4,822 decks.
Counted on , from decks collected in July and November 2026. Each deck counts under the bracket Moxfield lists for it. Bracket 1 holds only 80 of them, too few for a page of its own, so it shares this one with bracket 2.
How bracket 1 and 2 decks compare with bracket 3
Each cell shows the median first. The range after it covers the middle half of decks, so a quarter of decks run less than the range and a quarter run more. The deck numbers page says what each row counts.
| Brackets 1-2 | Bracket 3 | |
|---|---|---|
| Lands | 36 (34-37) | 35 (33-36) |
| Ramp | 10 (8-13) | 10 (8-13) |
| Card advantage | 9 (7-12) | 10 (7-12) |
| Targeted disruption | 9 (6-11) | 9 (7-11) |
| Mass disruption | 2 (1-3) | 2 (1-3) |
| Protection | 2 (1-4) | 3 (1-5) |
| Game Changers | 0 (0-0) | 2 (1-3) |
| Average mana value | 3.18 (2.86-3.52) | 3.14 (2.84-3.50) |
| Decks counted | 4,822 | 6,057 |
Do bracket 1 and 2 decks run Game Changers?
No. None of these 4,822 decks runs one. Moxfield lists any deck with a Game Changer as bracket 3 or higher, so the zero here comes from Moxfield's rule. Brackets 1 and 2 allow no Game Changers, and bringing a deck down to bracket 3 covers what EDHTuner names at bracket 2 too.
