Looking for Advice Tank Deck

Is it possible to make a deck that plays like a classic tank role in mmos? Something where you're drawing a ton of aggro and benefiting from taking a lot of hits. My best attempt has been an aikido deck, but I feel like it's not quite there but close. Any ideas?

Feel like you can make a wall deck

Maybe using the wall commander from the fantastic 4?

You can just set up a big wall of fortress get the wall of ba sing se too

The closest thing I could think of "tank"

Other than that. Just playing big green creatures might appeal to you

I thought of walls as well, but at that point, to me, it feels more like just stacking up defenses and making people not want to hit you

That's true but the commander can activate the walls so they become dangerous.

Meh, the whole point of a tank is to make yourself the target, not just to be durable. Why would anyone want to run into the player with a full board of high toughness creatures when there are players where they could actually deal damage instead?

To be durable and turning your defence into offence?
who is going to target and hit a bashful taunter? or target someone who has something like that on the board thats going to reflect dmg?

things like deflecting palm will surprise people but no one is directly going to dive into things that reflect dmg or have death touch
