Aggro/Control Commander deck focused on attacking with one big creature that's hard to deal with. Lifelink is pretty much your defense.

There are lots of answers, but I wanted to keep the card advantage and tutoring lite. I am considering adding in a few large card drawing spells for grindier games, however.
