What commanders perform best in a highly political, mixed-skill local meta?

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for advice on commander choice for my local LGS meta. I’d appreciate some outside perspective.

Meta description:

Very mixed skill level (some newer players + more experienced ones)

Heavy politics, often personal targeting

Frequent poor threat assessment (players will spend interaction on the person drawing cards / looking strongest rather than the actual fastest threat)

Mix of turbo, midrange, and some casual/goodstuff decks

Occasional stax pieces (Collector Ouphe, cages, etc.)

Games often turn into 3v1 against whoever is perceived as the biggest threat

Some players tend to “play not to lose” and save resources instead of closing the game

I mainly play Tymna/Thrasios. It performs okay, but I very often become the primary target early because of the card draw and visible value.
