Cecil with Vecna secret commander - How can I make this work?
I want to build a deck around combining [[Book of Vile Darkness]], [[Eye of Vecna]], and [[Hand of Vecna]] to make the Vecna token. I was considering mono black at first, with [[Varragoth]] in the command zone to tutor all the pieces up, but eventually landed on Cecil. I think all the pieces synergize with him pretty neatly, the Eye and Hand can help early to bring down my life to his transform threshold, Cecil's combat damage trigger can trigger the Book's effect to make zombies, transformed Cecil's lifelink helps counteract the life loss from himself + the Eye later, and the zombie tokens from the Book will be indestructible when they swing.
Unfortunately, I'm not really sure what direction to go from here. Initially I was building it with a Knight theme and a bunch of [[Templar Knight]]s to get the pieces, but needing 5 of them to survive to the same turn together and swing felt slow and clunky while playtesting (especially if all three pieces need to be tutored out.)
Is there a way I can make this work without it feeling awkward? Ideally I'd be aiming for bracket 3, so I have access to Demonic + Vamp tutor and Necropotence to help search for Vecna's parts / get Cecil to transform sooner, but the idea might be better executed at bracket 1/2. Am I better off just building a more general purpose Cecil deck and just shoving the parts in there? Any help is appreciated, thanks!
