Dionus.
Dionus is a 100-card Commander deck led by Dionus, Elvish Archdruid in the mono-green color identity. TableCommander estimates this deck at bracket 4 β optimized / high-power.
The mainboard runs 36 creatures, 11 instants, 8 sorceries, 5 artifacts, 7 enchantments, 1 planeswalker, and 32 lands, averaging 3.28 mana value across non-land cards. 59% of non-land cards cost 3 mana or less; 21% cost 5 or more.
Notable inclusions: 3 game changers (Seedborn Muse, Crop Rotation, and Gaea's Cradle), 1 mass land denial card (Gilt-Leaf Archdruid), 2 cheap tutors (Green Sun's Zenith and Nature's Rhythm), and 2 tutors (Archdruid's Charm and Chord of Calling). This deck is currently Commander-legal on TableCommander.

Why bracket 4? β Optimized
5 early two-card combos: Umbral Mantle + Gyre Sage, Staff of Domination + Gyre Sage and 3 more
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.
1 mass land denial
Destroys, exiles, or locks down many lands without replacing them. Any mass land denial means Bracket 4.
