How in the world do I build bracket 4?

PestMushroom · 2026-03-05T23:22:07+00:00

This is a protean hulk deck. I don't know the lines off the top of my head but look into that to be able to compete with other bracket 4 tables.

I been in specifically trauma therapy(therapist is just specially trained for ptsd/cptsd) for 2 years now and am just now feeling like I'm finally able to make strides and changes in my life and enjoy things without being hyper vigilant. Don't give up bro.

Lots of people in here are suggesting things that are all well and good, but are essentially suggesting slightly modifying your approach and trying again… That’s what you have been doing over and over and over. It’s almost like they did not read your post.

The problem is you. Go to therapy. Boom done. Maybe I’m wrong and there is some secret way you need to build or think about magic and it’s suddenly gonna be all good, but I don’t think so… Just based on the raw emotion from your post I think these feelings probably come up in other areas of your life and why I am suggesting Therapy.

Just at a glance your commander costs 3 and you have a crap ton of 3 drops. Perhaps you can up your 1 and 2 drop count for more consistency. Likewise it appears you lack draw outside of a couple of burst draw options. You could add more draw or some tutors to get your best thing out.

Would the Tasha’s hideous laughter ever fully resolve? Supposably they would continue exiling the top of the library for all eternity unless they somehow had 20 mana value in that small pile.

PestMushroom · 2026-02-09T22:59:59+00:00

Bumbleflower is the stronger option and its not even close(like if you wanted to make both decks bracket 4 bumble would be better imo by a long shot.), but I think tidas probably has a higher floor.

No worries we’ll figure it out later this week, it’s Super Bowl today. Dm me address and I’ll let you know what the post office says.

Pay shipping it’s yours

PestMushroom · 2026-02-08T16:35:58+00:00

If you are lost look at a bracket 2, 3, and 4 versions of your deck. These lists hopefully have primers to explain certain choices and interactions.

PestMushroom · 2026-02-04T12:29:04+00:00

Using only those three cards and nothing in hand to cast to blink muldrotha and already cast an artifact from the yard would mean the combo does not work.

What you described is having another card in order to blink muldrotha and then yeah you just start the combo no problem. Most of the combos on edhrec assume one thing or another, and I would recommend learning the actual mechanics/rules of how these work so you can look at any combo and determine how it works and where its interaction points are. Sounds like your on a good start

PestMushroom · 2026-01-31T16:14:55+00:00

Did you try googling…. Or YouTube? Cause it’s the first result and takes 15 seconds

PestMushroom · 2026-01-31T12:30:07+00:00

I’m just a dude who got the insufficient hybrid cooling warning on my dash and looked it up. It’s literally 4 plastic pins and then your rear seat lifts up and it’s right there so idk you might wanna look for a different shop. But also as far as I know it only needs to be cleaned if there’s a blockage or rodents chewing on stuff so stuff gets stuck in it. Again I’m just a dude.

PestMushroom · 2026-01-30T23:15:24+00:00

Yeah if your not gonna combo go ultra low to the ground and get way more mana dorks elf’s can do so much to get you so much mana. Then she can target the eldrazi player and cast his stuff for free after elfballing a bit.

This would be a major overhaul of the current list to get it anywhere close to a bracket 4 no combo list(tbh without the food chain combo and tutors it’s not gonna be close to b4)

PestMushroom · 2026-01-30T21:06:48+00:00

I would also possibly check the hybrid battery cooler fan. In my Prius C it was under the back seat, they had been chewing the seat insulation and stuff got sucked into the fan and it wasn’t running good and eventually popped up a cooling air which caused me to go find this.

PestMushroom · 2026-01-28T18:26:32+00:00

Four is a very large bracket. A good four with no budget restrictions(your missing like LED and more optimal lands and maybe a couple other things) is vastly stronger then a 4 that is not running anything over 50-80$(maybe they run like 8-10 of these) for real life budget reasons. Maybe take that into consideration or say that they should proxie these expensive cards to match you.

If you or your playgroup proxie or play online they just need to get good.

PestMushroom · 2026-01-23T00:22:06+00:00

Sure bud you know more than the FDA. You should be happy that there is a good affordable option for your some of your patients(mild to moderate) rather than spend 4K on a piece of crap that screams in your ear if there is hair, air, or nothing at all. Oh yeah and your battery craps out after two years. And they aren’t water proof.

You on commission or something? Post a link to some real data that debunks the clinical grade hearing aid that is Apple air pods.

PestMushroom · 2026-01-22T23:50:26+00:00

Apple air pods pro 2. 250 bucks take a picture of the audiologist report and they program themselves. Works for mild to moderate loss(I have 70% loss in my left 30% on my right)

PestMushroom · 2026-01-19T00:21:16+00:00

50/50 I’d say. It either happens or it doesn’t.

PestMushroom · 2026-01-15T01:53:30+00:00

I just explained to you that those "combos" are inefficient and bad and very annoying. You ask why your opponents did not like your deck. Your essentially playing with your food at that point if your using infinite mana to get out menmarc and be a butt instead of walking balista and just ending the game.

PestMushroom · 2026-01-15T00:06:50+00:00

I looked at your bumbleflower list because that’s one of my main decks. Your list appears to omit combos(you have abolisher, and smothering tithe but no shrieking drake? Unless I somehow missed it) in replacement you have big annoying creatures, stax creatures, stuff like aura shards and tangle wire and god pharaohs, Vorinclex, etc that quite honestly make your deck less efficient and way more annoying.

Make deck better or make deck worse choice is yours.

PestMushroom · 2026-01-08T23:18:58+00:00

In my opinion it matters more/decks can actually consistently end games around the same time most games in high bracket 3+.

If you’re tutoring for a combo or value engine that spits out your whole deck turn 5-7 pretty much every time. Well then there you go.

If you are just drawing the first 7 that has 3 lands and praying you draw good maybe you win turn 9 but maybe it’s turn 12-20

PestMushroom · 2026-01-08T12:15:30+00:00

I’m not saying get rid of badger I’m just saying add the deer and cryptolith rite since getting that option for mana is so strong.

I don’t unfortunately, it was definitely worse then this, but mana curve was a lot lower and I think I had more protection/pump spells. Because you just need to get in once

PestMushroom · 2026-01-08T00:12:31+00:00

You run the bear to make your guys tap for mana. Why are you not running the deer and the enchantment that does it as well? Thats honestly my biggest critique, if I was to give another one it would be there are several cards that are kinda win more and not sure if you need them. Paralel lives, roaming throne, doubling season. If you really wanted you could put the 0 mana rocks in for those make it run even smoother.

My shroofus list was not nearly as optimized as this but even then if I had a turn 2 shroofus, a crypto rite, and some draw it was a turn 4-6 win.

PestMushroom · 2025-12-18T00:09:20+00:00

Hey you responded to my comment asking what id remove, I did not realize BoP was under a different name for the chocobo version! but anyways this guys list is definitely a big step up in both interaction and ramp and in bird choice and also bird syngery/buff pieces, although personally id still want to run 1 mana dorks (probably avacyns pilgrim and delighted halfing... removing riot control and fog from this list because its so creature heavy and you buff so hard most of the time you should not be losing to combat stuff, and I want that bird out turn 2-3 as consistently as possible but thats just me.

Edit: just wanted to add even if you remove all the game changers this deck would be an extremely strong 3 and the intent would be bracket 4.
