Grand Larceny
Bracket 2 by the list · Core
Green: the colour is how well it does what Bracket 2 allows.
- The three dials average 89 for what Bracket 2 allows: that sets the colour.
- Power 23 counts as 92 here: Bracket 2 is for Power 25 and up. With Manabase 92 and Health 83, that is 89 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 23: why
- Average mana value 3.60: middling
- No tutors: it sees its best cards only by drawing them
- 10 cards that draw or dig
Manabase 92: why
- 6 lands always enter tapped
- 38 lands, counting ramp ≈ 42 sources: enough for mana value 3.60
- 22 sources make green, and it has a card costing {G}{G}: aim for about 26
Health 83: why
- Only 1 board wipe (aim for 2)
- Only 6 ways to remove a threat (aim for 8)
- 9 spells cost 6 or more (15% of spells; aim under 10%)

How fast and how hard this deck can take over a game. Absolute: about 90 and up is cEDH, so a casual deck scores low on purpose.
