Why bracket 4? — Optimized
6 early two-card combos: Tombstone Stairwell + Cauldron of Essence, Dina, Essence Brewer + Jumbo Cactuar and 4 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.
