How do you discuss the power level of your deck with your pod without sounding like you’re bragging?

Hey guys, I’m looking for some advice on how to talk to my pod about my deck’s power level without sounding like a bragging douche. I’m on the spectrum and have poor social skills so I’m not sure how to approach this properly. I started playing in this pod just a couple weeks ago after my brother-in-law invited me. The pod consists of him, myself, his brother, and his close friend so I’m kind of the odd man out it seems. The deck I am running is Ureni, of the Unwritten which I upgraded from the pre-con but I feel like I may have made it way too powerful. This is the first commander deck I have played that isn’t straight out of the box and I just kind of started slamming a bunch of cool dragon creatures and dragon flavored cards in there and now it feels way stronger than their decks and I want to ask them if I should downgrade my deck to make it more fun to play against but I don’t want to come across as if I’m calling their decks too weak for mine or like I’m gassing up my deck or insulting them. We played a couple rounds tonight and I found myself holding back really hard and purposely misplaying/ forgetting triggers so I didn’t absolutely wipe the board with them and I still ended up winning the first game and I would have won the second but I essentially chose not to because I wanted everyone to have a good time. Has anyone else been in a similar situation and how did you handle it?

Here is my decklist to help aid in analyzing it’s power level

All beys are genuine and are either Takara Tomy or Hasbro pro series. Some notable beys include full gear Holy King version Belial, Astral Fafnir, and a fully functional mint condition Command Dragon Ignition’. Most of them have never been battled and just sit in a box. All launchers are functional as well and the grip has the metal attachments. Please feel free to make an offer
