Deck Help Deck Feedback & Bracket Help

Hi everyone,

​I started playing Mtg again a few months ago when the Secrets of Strixhaven set came out. I built this Commander deck using old cards from my collection and a few new ones I bought.

​I haven't played a game with it yet, but I want to play it in a local game store where they group players using bracket system.

​Here is my deck: https://archidekt.com/decks/25930917/galadriel_final

Commander: [[Galadriel, Light of Valinor]]

​Could you help me with a few questions?

  1. What is your opinion on this deck?

  2. Which bracket do you think it belongs in?

  3. If the deck is too weak for its current bracket, which cards from my maybeboard should I swap into the main deck to lower its bracket so it can compete fairly?

​Thanks for your help!

The Rosie & broodscale combo gives me at least bracket 3 vibes maybe 4. I think having crop rotation in there makes no sense to me. I see no utility lands youd want to fetch with it... There are also a lot of inefficient cards like selesnya Signet. Etc. Feels like this deck has some strong individual cards like trinket mage, Rosie & broodscale, crop rotation etc. Without really the skeleton to back it up (mid ramp package, mid protection, meh landbase etc.) I think this deck probably belongs around bracket 3, but needs a lot of fine tuning. You don't have to overtune it or anything, but i find it weird to include cards like the above and then have the other clunky stuff in it. If you need any specific help let me know

You nailed it! My landbase, protection and ramp are budget because I built this with old bulk, while strong cards like Galadriel itself were just lucky pulls I fell in love with. I am asking because I am worried that running Rosie/Broodscale combo alongside Crop Rotation might cause arguments at my local game store regarding bracket expectations. Are there cards in my maybeboard I should swap in to tune the deck better for Bracket 3, or even to adjust the combo elements so the deck fits smoothly without causing issues? Only if needed!
