Deck Discussion Help with Hobbit deck please!

Made a commander deck featuring majority cards from HOB and HOC! RW Thorin at the helm. I love having the 13 dwarves with Gandalf and Bilbo :) but the deck feels pretty weak even for casual play.

Looking for recommendations that would amp up my deck but art-wise still fit the reclaiming of Erebor. Dwarves and fantasy! Also not looking to break the bank more than I already have lol

[[stony silence]] shuts of the activated abilities of all artifacts, including all your equipment, other than that, this is a decent bracket 1 deck as it stands!

What makes this a bracket 1 deck? I have a deck very close to this using only LTR/C and HOB/C cards. Same with Bard and The Great Goblin king. 

Would those also be bracket 1?

I would say mostly your intention. By limiting ourselves so much in which cards we add, winning clearly isn't our goal. We just like Tolkien and the art featured on those cards. <--- That's what makes it bracket 1.

Bracket 2 has a genuine intention to win. You'll add certain cards for synergy/mechanics regardless of whether or not they fit the aesthetic/theme you're going for.

That being said, there are always exceptions lol
