What bracket is a Kiora, Sovereign of the Deep deck?
Of the 20 Kiora, Sovereign of the Deep decks we counted, 12 (60%) need at least bracket 3, and 4 (20%) 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 | 35% |
| Bracket 2 | 1 | 5% |
| Bracket 3 | 8 | 40% |
| Bracket 4 | 4 | 20% |
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 | 4 |
| Mass land denial | Bracket 4 | 0 |
| One to three Game Changers | Bracket 3 | 8 |
| A two-card infinite combo | Bracket 3 | 2 |
| An extra-turn card | Bracket 2 | 3 |
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.
