When you make an ever growing army of lifelinkers, the drawback is pretty minimal
Defiler of Vigor {3}{G}{G} Creature — Phyrexian Wurm Trample As an additional cost to cast green permanent spells, you may pay 2 life. Those spells cost {G} less to cast if you paid life this way. This effect reduces only the amount of green mana you pay. Whenever you cast a green permanent spell, put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control. 6/6

Other, much less "I am playing my cards wrong on purpose" but still fun GW Commanders I have played include Aristocrats and Reanimator
Torsten, Founder of Benalia {5}{G}{W} Legendary Creature — Human Soldier When Torsten enters, reveal the top seven cards of your library. Put any number of creature and/or land cards from among them into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. When Torsten dies, create seven 1/1 white Soldier creature tokens. 7/7 Aerith, Last Ancient {2}{G}{W} Legendary Creature — Human Cleric Druid Lifelink Raise — At the beginning of your end step, if you gained life this turn, return target creature card from your graveyard to your hand. If you gained 7 or more life this turn, return that card to the battlefield instead. “Right here, right now, I need to know I did everything I could.” 3/5

There could only ever be one answer for me
Magar of the Magic Strings {1}{B}{R} Legendary Creature — Minotaur Performer {1}{B}{R}: Note the name of target instant or sorcery card in your graveyard and put it onto the battlefield face down. It’s a 3/3 creature with “Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, you may create a copy of the card with the noted name. You may cast the copy without paying its mana cost” and “If this creature would leave the battlefield, exile it instead of putting it anywhere else.” 3/3

What's *extremely* funny during my 4Player BG3 run is I cucked my friend out of the Astarion route by locking into it first (pictured here on the left), DIDN'T COMPLETE IT, and then did the Gale route on accident (all while being an ugly 3 foot tall gnome named NASTY MANLET)
A picture of a drow half elf in Lae'zel's armor from Baldur's Gate 3, a real "Evil Twink" energy. Beside him is an underwear clad underdark gnome with muttonchops, my beloved avatar NASTY MANLET, covered in the aura that indicates your blood has been drunk by a vampire. That's right, I stole Astarion from the goth twink and he was MALDING about it.

It is also the best primer I've ever written
The goal of this deck is simple (but the method to achieve it is needlessly obtuse (on purpose)): We want to prevent our opponents from playing things that threaten us, while we find a way to convert our non-threatening board into damage. Since we assume the most threatening permanent type is "Creature", we are loosely built to defuse the threat potential of opponent's creatures. The central card of this strategy is Swindler's Scheme, a bad but funny version of Counterbalance that lets us exchange a spell of ours when we counter an opponent's spell of a matching type. RATHER THAN STEAL OUR OPPONENT'S GOOD SPELLS, WE ARE GOING TO FORCE OUR OPPONENT TO PLAY OUR BAD SPELLS. The supporting cast for this strategy includes Penance and Necropotence for Top Deck Manipulation, as well as Assemble the Players for a Tutorable future sight that lets us more specifically know when we have answers on deck. Gonti's Machinations is a silver bullet way to keep our life from going into freefall, and there's a couple recursive and cloning pieces that let us recycle it. Usually we don't prioritize that until after we've set up """"the lock"""" How do we pivot this into a win? Rammas Echor, Ancient Shield, Jaws of Defeat, and Blight Pile let us turn a pile of walls into meaningful damage, and as a break-in-case-of-emergency measure, we of course run All That Glitters What do we save our actual interaction for? Our deck preys on cards cast from hand, so if there's a graveyard deck or a cast-from-exile deck, they are the highest priority target for our interaction, as well as singling out for a kill. Additionally, we have a pretty standard selection of Ghostly Prison and Propaganda because people are going to want to kill you for gifting them walls (EDH players do not regularly practice gratitude) That said, the deck is more about being mildly irritating than it is about winning, so don't expect it to kill (Do expect it to get you killed)

YOU THOUGHT CHRISTMAS WAS SAVED? WRONG IT'S FIVE DROP FRIDAY YOUR ASS IS GETTING COAL
Clackbridge Troll {3}{B}{B} Creature — Troll Trample, haste When this creature enters, target opponent creates three 0/1 white Goat creature tokens. At the beginning of combat on your turn, any opponent may sacrifice a creature of their choice. If a player does, tap this creature, you gain 3 life, and you draw a card. 8/8 Illustrated by Svetlin Velinov
