Artifacts breaking the Rules.
Artifacts breaking the Rules is a 100-card Commander deck led by The Everforger in a colorless color identity, played 2 times with a 0% win rate. TableCommander estimates this deck at bracket 4 — optimized / high-power.
The mainboard runs 24 creatures, 5 instants, 3 sorceries, 30 artifacts, 1 enchantment, 4 planeswalkers, and 33 lands, averaging 3.33 mana value across non-land cards. 60% of non-land cards cost 3 mana or less; 21% cost 5 or more.
Notable inclusions: 5 game changers (e.g. Mox Diamond, Chrome Mox, and Ancient Tomb), 3 fast mana (Mox Amber, Mox Opal, and Springleaf Drum), and 2 tutors (Ugin, Eye of the Storms and Tezzeret, Cruel Captain). This deck currently has legality issues for Commander.

Why bracket 4? — Optimized
1 early two-card combo: Rings of Brighthearth + Basalt Monolith
A two-card infinite combo cheap enough to assemble and win in the early game (data from Commander Spellbook). Bracket 3 decks are expected not to run these; any means Bracket 4.
5 Game Changers
Cards on WotC's official Game Changers list. Any puts a deck at Bracket 3 or above; more than three means Bracket 4.
