Where Kataki, War's Wage bracket 4 and bracket 3 decks differ
These nonland cards are in a far bigger share of the 19 bracket 4 decks than of the 25 bracket 3 decks. For each one the gap is at least three decks in ten. Of these 8 cards, 1 is a Game Changer. 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Hushbringer | 11 of 19 | 2 of 25 |
| Hokori, Dust Drinker | 9 of 19 | 0 of 25 |

What bracket is a Kataki, War's Wage deck?
Of the 60 Kataki, War's Wage decks we counted, 44 (73%) need at least bracket 3, and 19 (32%) 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 | 8 | 13% |
| Bracket 2 | 8 | 13% |
| Bracket 3 | 25 | 42% |
| Bracket 4 | 19 | 32% |
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 | 10 |
| Mass land denial | Bracket 4 | 15 |
| One to three Game Changers | Bracket 3 | 29 |
| A two-card infinite combo | Bracket 3 | 9 |
| An extra-turn card | Bracket 2 | 31 |
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, 3 of these decks have a bracket below the lowest one the rules allow.
