How it has actually done
Not a rating — results from Commander games recorded at a table. See commander stats worth tracking.
MMR is a skill rating for the deck, not for its pilot — what mmr means in magic.
Bracket 2 — Core
A floor, not a verdict. It is read off the cards in the list, with combos looked up rather than guessed at — but only ones somebody has written up are in the database, so a deck can play higher than this and never lower. Read how the commander bracket system works, and bring it to your Rule 0 conversation.
What it's built out of
Measured against the Balanced Midrange blueprint. These counts overlap and sum past 100 — a card counts toward every job it does, so Solemn Simulacrum is a creature and an artifact and ramp. That is how deck builders count; see the 100-card commander deck template.

The decklist
100 cards, grouped by the main job each one does. Every card links to its own page — win rate, the commanders it's most played under, and the colors it turns up in.
Building it in paper? TCGplayer's Mass Entry takes all 100 cards at once and picks the cheapest available printing of each — no set pinned, so nothing is quoted at a price the deck doesn't need. The bench isn't included.
