This weird deck is centered around voltroning the commander out so your opponents can't attack you. Basically, stack a bunch of buffs and equipment on the commander Baeloth Barrityl, Entertainer so opponents have to attack each other due to Goads. This also forces our opponents with squishy commanders to attack, which generally gets them killed.

Bothersome Quasit hilariously leaves opponents with no blockers as they are forced to wipe out each other's life points since everything (or just about everything) should be goaded by your commander.

This is definitely a "the greatest defense is an even greater offense" deck, but not because it races to the finish line with commander damage. It's because they literally just can't attack you if your commander is buff. When only one opponent is left, they can target you finally but you will hopefully be able to just drop them with commander damage at that point.

To keep the commander safe, we have cards like Swiftfoot Boots, Mirror Shield, Hammer of Nazahn, etc.

I don't personally enjoy a lot of interaction pieces so you may want to modify the deck to include targeted removal and more board wipes.
