Greetings! Noticed your Help tag, and request for some general feedback ...

Biggest advice I could give -- especially if you're aiming for Bracket 4 -- is to invest a bit in your manabase for sure, and maybe in some more mana acceleration/cost reduction effects.

With a 4-mana Commander who wants to be casting multiple 3-mana spells a turn, I'd recommend 38 Lands (with as few Tap Lands as possible), 12 mana acceleration effects (costing 2-mana or less, to help power out Y'shtola on Turn 3), and 4 cost reduction effects or slow mana sources (costing 3 mana or less, to help power out 2x spells a turn starting on Turn 4).

Some possible Lands (with more options over at Managathering.com):
- Fetchable Triome: Raffine's Tower
- MDFCs: Hengegate Pathway  Flip, Clearwater Pathway  Flip, Brightclimb Pathway  Flip, and maybe Waterlogged Teachings  Flip (not sure if it's worth it as the Land side enters Tapped)
- Missing Fetch Lands: Marsh Flats, Flooded Strand
- Missing Battlebond Lands: Sea of Clouds, Vault of Champions

Possible Fast Mana sources:
- Fellwar Stone
- Thought Vessel
- Mox Amber and Mana Vault (worth mentioning, even if they're too spendy)

Possible Cost Reducers/Slow Mana Sources:
- Lyse Hext
- Alisaie Leveilleur
- Grand Arbiter Augustin IV (I know he's 4 mana, but he's really good)
- Relic of Legends
- Bender's Waterskin

Good luck (and good skill!) with Y'shtola!
Cheers!
