2 early two-card combos: Heliod, Sun-Crowned + Triskelion, Heliod, Sun-Crowned + Walking Ballista
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.
2 mass land denial
Destroys, exiles, or locks down many lands without replacing them. Any mass land denial means Bracket 4.
