Building Ojutai. Pls help!

{"ops":[{"insert":"Hi! I've been want to construct a Dragonlord Ojutai EDH deck, but don't entirely know where to start. I've been looking at primers and found that most all of them are control or voltron, but , seeing as neither speaks to me in particular, I wanted to see if anyone has some alternative strategy I could build him into. Thanks in advance for any feedback and I hope you have a wonderful day! \n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"Slick Samos, \n\nThanks for your input! You are absolutely right in suggesting Taigam as a commander with Ojutai in the 99. I honestly had no idea how I wanted to run Ojutai as a commander, I just knew that I suck at playing control and would rather play Narset, Enlightened Master as a voltron commander. I mostly wanted to run Ojutai because he's one of my favorite characters from recent Magic lore, but Taigam does make much more sense as a commander while still keeping the Ojutai clan flavor. Thanks for your info! I think I'll get to work on a Taigam Spellslinger deck. :)\n\nSincerely, captain_Pugsley\n"}]}
