A deck without compare: help me streamline a Cecil-Lurrus deck that has no comparison (on EDHRec)
So recently, I scrapped an [[Amalia Benavides Aguirre]] deck of mine, and decided to replace it with a deck helmed by [[Cecil, Dark Knight]] and [[Lurrus of the Dream Den]]. However, when I went to edhrec to see about finding a solid direction for the deck, I found that they recorded no other comparable list pairing the two. In the end, I brewed the following list, "The Unstoppable":

The current idea with the list is to use the early game to get in hits with Cecil, using [[Sigardian Priest]] type creatures to clear the way, while draining my own life using [[Sign in Blood]] card draw spells to drop down to the required life total to flip into [[Cecil, Redeemed Paladin]] and start dropping wraths to ensure the board is clear to swing with the rest of my creatures. Meanwhile, Lurrus is here to let me loop my self-sacrificing utility creatures to ensure no issues arise to slow my assault.
Now that I have a full list, I would like the input of those more experienced than me for ways the list can be improved/streamlined (I already have [[Dark Confidant]] on my radar, so some other includes would be nice).
