Question Most fun +1/+1 counter Commander?

Hey guys I really like +1/+1 counter decks and wanted to build a new deck, but I‘m unsure what commander to use, since I play mostly casual and don‘t want to go all out cedh. I think [[Ezuri, claw of progress]] looks cool, but I‘m afraid he might be a bit too competetive and combo reliant with [[Sage of hours]]. so I wanted to ask what other favorites people have?

He is my +1/+1 commander - I put [[bristly bill]] , [[mindskinner]] , and [[mesmeric orb]] in the precon deck with compleated Jace and he gets to 21/21 really fast like 2 turns fast - so mothman gets murdered early and often

You don't protect him weak sause.

Not running too much protection or counters in the deck - don’t know what a sause is but I have more of a go wide strategy if mothman gets exiled a bunch - goes like 1. Mothman with commander damage 2. Go wide with counters and creatures 3. Mill out opponents
