Deck list: https://archidekt.com/decks/20128453/monoblue_voltron

I want to make Syr Elenora work in bracket 3, as she was the first legendary creature card I ever got in Magic.

That is what I've got so far, trying to leverage non-legendary clones to have not just one big creature and to make use of her ETB to draw more cards - of course in addition to stuff like copying Displacer Kitten or an opponent's creature.

What would you change to improve this deck? I want to keep combat damage as the primary win-con instead of turning the deck into yet another combo deck.

Due to how many cards I draw, the low land count so far had not been an issue.

Some cards I considered include Throne of Eldraine, Wayfarer's Bauble.

Do you really wish to be voltron? This is not super effective if you also intend to use her as a blink target. Might make more sense to run some creatures and cards like [[Empyrial Plate]] or [[Proft's Eidetic Memory]].

I would also advise running a few more lands. Even with your card draw: you do need some lands to begin with. Also: if you can draw a lot of cards, you don't have much risk of flooding, so you don't need to go so low on lands.

I already run Empyreal Plate

Ah, sorry, I must have overlooked it. [[Chasm Skulker]], [[Psychosis Crawler]]. [[Mordenkainen]] are some other cards along that line.

+2: Draw two cards, then put a card from your hand on the bottom of your library.
−2: Create a blue Dog Illusion creature token with "This token's power and toughness are each equal to twice the number of cards in your hand."
−10: Exchange your hand and library, then shuffle. You get an emblem with "You have no maximum hand size."
