Corrupting Influence
Bracket 2 by the list · Core
Gold: the colour is how well it does what Bracket 2 allows.
- The three dials average 93 for what Bracket 2 allows: that sets the colour.
- Power 25 counts as 100 here: Bracket 2 is for Power 25 and up. With Manabase 90 and Health 88, that is 93 on average (weights 40 / 30 / 30).
- No Game Changers, mass land denial or pile of extra turns: Core by the list. Exhibition (1) is about what a deck is for, and only you can say that.
- Combos are not checked yet.
Power 25: why
- No tutors: it sees its best cards only by drawing them
- 1 answer at mana value 2 or less
- Average mana value 3.27: middling
Manabase 90: why
- 8 lands always enter tapped
- 38 lands, counting ramp ≈ 41.5 sources: enough for mana value 3.27
- 24 sources make white, and it has a card costing {W}{W}: aim for about 26
Health 88: why
- Only 5 ways to remove a threat (aim for 8)
- Only 9 cards that draw or dig (aim for 10)
- 12 ramp pieces ✓

Scores read the list alone, from each card's own rules text: they can't see how a deck is played. Bracket names and the Game Changers list are Wizards of the Coast's (Commander Brackets, list as Wizards last changed it, 9 February 2026).
