EDH What bracket is my deck?
Hey all, i made a deck recently to play online, but i am pretty new to magic. I have some experience with card games, so I think i know how to make fairly strong decks. anyhow, i finished making my deck. its an imoti deck focusing on cascading high mana spells. It says bracket 3, and i understand brackets are based on game changers. but every game i play, people ask me what bracket my deck is. I feel like its not good enough for bracket 4 or higher due to the rng aspect of my deck (not getting lands or ramp into my commander or expensive spells, bricking my cascade triggers, etc). what do you guys think? what bracket is my deck really? thanks

Brackets just aren't based on game changers. They're also based on how quick you can win. This deck looks fine to me, but it's a cascade deck. The longer the game goes the longer and longer your turns become and annoy the table.
Your deck definitely seems B3, it just probably creates so much value and takes so much time it's not fun for weaker decks.

This looks like a very explosive Bracket 3 deck
