Hail, Caesar
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 29 counts as 100 here: Bracket 2 is for Power 25 and up. With Manabase 81 and Health 84, 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 29: why
- 15 cards that draw or dig
- No tutors: it sees its best cards only by drawing them
- 0 answers at mana value 2 or less
Manabase 81: why
- 9 lands always enter tapped
- 22 sources make white, and it has a card costing {W}{W}{W}: aim for about 30
- 36 lands, counting ramp ≈ 39 sources: enough for mana value 3.25
Health 84: why
- Only 3 ways to remove a threat (aim for 8)
- 10 ramp pieces ✓
- 15 cards that draw or dig ✓

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).
Led by Caesar, Legion's Emperor. A white-black-red Commander deck built around token swarms and sacrifice payoffs, on a Human kindred base. 32 creatures, 36 lands, average mana value 3.25.
