Why this bracket?

  • Noncombat burst finish: 2 damage-reflectors + a mass-damage spell (Brash Taunter, Stuffy Doll + Blasphemous Act) — but it is finite and comes together slowly (goldfish ~turn 8, Bracket 2 pace), so it does not floor Bracket 3 on its own
  • Borderline verdict — close to B3: noncombat burst finish (Brash Taunter + Blasphemous Act) — a real combo kill that's finite/board-dependent, so the two-card-infinite rule doesn't gate it
  • Noncombat burst finish: Brash Taunter + Blasphemous Act — finite and board-dependent, so it doesn't trip the two-card-infinite floor, but it's a real combo kill this list is built toward
  • High optimization — score 28/75 (15 interaction spells, 9 card-advantage sources, 1 fast-mana sources) — raises this deck above its hard floor
  • Engine accuracy: 77.1% exact and 99.5% within one bracket on 1,229 organizer-labeled tournament decklists (engine v389).
