Edgar Markov decks by bracket
These are the same rows for each bracket that holds at least 8 of these decks, by the bracket Moxfield lists for each one. The Brackets 1-2 and Bracket 4 columns hold 8 and 17 decks. Those are small counts, so their medians can sit a card or two away from what bigger counts would show.
| Brackets 1-2 | Bracket 3 | Bracket 4 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lands | 36 (34-37) | 35 (33-37) | 33 (30-34) |
| Ramp | 7 (6-10) | 6 (2-7) | 7 (4-9) |
| Card advantage | 8.5 (7-13) | 12.5 (8-16) | 10 (10-13) |
| Targeted disruption | 8.5 (4-12) | 7.5 (6-10) | 7 (6-8) |
| Mass disruption | 0.5 (0-2) | 3 (3-4) | 2 (1-3) |

Where Edgar Markov bracket 4 and bracket 3 decks differ
These nonland cards are in a far bigger share of the 17 bracket 4 decks than of the 20 bracket 3 decks. For each one the gap is at least three decks in ten. Of these 8 cards, 7 are Game Changers. Moxfield lists any deck with more than three Game Changers as bracket 4 or higher, by its own count of them, so part of this gap comes from that rule.
| Card | Bracket 4 | Bracket 3 |
|---|---|---|
| Vampiric Tutor | 17 of 17 | 6 of 20 |
| Phyrexian Altar | 12 of 17 | 3 of 20 |
| Imperial Seal | 9 of 17 | 0 of 20 |
| Enlightened Tutor | 9 of 17 | 1 of 20 |
| Smothering Tithe | 9 of 17 | 1 of 20 |
| Demonic Tutor | 13 of 17 | 6 of 20 |
| Teferi's Protection | 13 of 17 | 6 of 20 |
| The One Ring | 9 of 17 | 2 of 20 |
What bracket is an Edgar Markov deck?
Of the 48 Edgar Markov decks we counted, 41 (85%) need at least bracket 3, and 18 (38%) 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 | 7 | 15% |
| Bracket 2 | 0 | 0% |
| Bracket 3 | 23 | 48% |
| Bracket 4 | 18 | 38% |
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 | 18 |
| Mass land denial | Bracket 4 | 2 |
| One to three Game Changers | Bracket 3 | 19 |
| A two-card infinite combo | Bracket 3 | 30 |
| An extra-turn card | Bracket 2 | 1 |
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, 2 of these decks have a bracket below the lowest one the rules allow.
