My opinion did slightly change on Cecil, Dark Knight because I dont have a Deaths Shadow archetype in my cube (which is hard to do in singleton) but someone did draft a pretty sweet deck that technically went undefeated in the swiss rounds (going 3-0) but lost to me, (who sat out since we had an odd number of drafters - I ended up going 2-0 from playing that player and someone else.) This was the deck: Ive also posted it on Moxfield

"Look, I drafted Human control!" "Wow, UR Wizards can be really good when the right enablers show up." This is much more interesting than one guy drafted Elves, another Goblins, another Merfolk, and so on
