What bracket is an Ayara, First of Locthwain deck?
Of the 20 Ayara, First of Locthwain decks we counted, 17 (85%) need at least bracket 3, and 9 (45%) need at least bracket 4.
Each deck's lowest bracket here comes from Wizards' bracket rules, as EDHTuner's engine reads them from the deck's cards. The engine checks Game Changers, two-card infinite combos from Commander Spellbook, mass land denial and extra-turn cards.
| Lowest bracket | Decks | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Bracket 1 | 3 | 15% |
| Bracket 2 | 0 | 0% |
| Bracket 3 | 8 | 40% |
| Bracket 4 | 9 | 45% |
One deck can meet several of these rules, and its lowest bracket is the highest one any of them asks for.
| What the deck runs | Needs at least | Decks |
|---|---|---|
| More than three Game Changers | Bracket 4 | 9 |
| Mass land denial | Bracket 4 | 0 |
| One to three Game Changers | Bracket 3 | 8 |
| A two-card infinite combo | Bracket 3 | 9 |
| An extra-turn card | Bracket 2 | 0 |
The rules also weigh how early a combo can win and whether extra turns get chained. The cards alone do not show that, so a deck can belong in a higher bracket than the one shown here. On Moxfield, none of these decks has a bracket below the lowest one the rules allow.
