Oops, All Paladins! by PinesTCG

Format: Commander

Commander: Cecil, Dark Knight // Cecil, Redeemed Paladin

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Orzhov Knight-voltron. The deck runs Cecil as its centerpiece: front face is a cheap deathtouch threat whose Darkness trigger helps the pilot spend life into the transform condition; back face is a lifelinking 4/4 that gives the rest of the attack force indestructible. Primary plan: lower life through painlands, Sign in Blood, and Cecil's own damage, flip by turn five, then suit him with All That Glitters, Holy Avenger, and Bloodforged Battle-Axe to close with commander damage. Secondary: knight beatdown with Paladin Class/anthems, Cabal Paladin plus Bolas's Citadel, and Knights' Charge mass recursion. No hidden commander; Bolas's Citadel is a secondary engine rather than a build-around.
