The mainboard runs 18 creatures, 15 instants, 13 sorceries, 12 artifacts, 6 enchantments, 1 planeswalker, and 35 lands, averaging 2.80 mana value across non-land cards. 77% of non-land cards cost 3 mana or less; 15% cost 5 or more.

Notable inclusions: 2 game changers (Mystical Tutor and Gamble), 3 fast mana (Rite of Flame, Simian Spirit Guide, and An Offer You Can't Refuse), 1 alternate win condition (Chance Encounter), 3 extra-turn spells (Ral Zarek, Stitch in Time, and Time Stretch), 1 cheap tutor (Muddle the Mixture), and 3 tutors (Tribute Mage, Fabricate, and Imperial Recruiter). This deck is currently Commander-legal on TableCommander.

Why bracket 4? — Optimized

4 early two-card combos: Edgar, King of Figaro + Squee's Revenge, Frenetic Efreet + Tavern Scoundrel and 2 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.

3 extra turn cards

Extra-turn cards. Fine in low quantities at Core; three or more means Bracket 3.
