Commander-Dakkon Blackblade

I'll admit, Dakkon Blackblade is only in this deck to be a "color commander"; it's a general that lets me play Blue, White and Black. But I have a Dakkon and I wanted to use it. And what the heck; when I do cast it, it'll likely be pretty big.

So why bring this up? Because Amonkhet and Hour of Devastation have cycling as a central mechanic in those sets. (Edit: I started working on this before I knew cycling was a mechanic in Ikoria!)

And this deck wants to cycle a bunch of creatures and then cast Living Death to bring them all back and attack for victory. I'll start off with a few games, of course but with a whole bunch of new cards to choose from, I am expecting to be able to hack away some chaff for some solid beats-and maybe even find enough room to make Dakkon a problem when I play it!
