I ran Godsire in Mayael the Anima. It was a pet card for many years but just got cut last week. Trying to bite down on some competitive deck building :'( lol
My Olivia Voldaren deck exists just for the flavor, but the most egregious offender is probably Victim of the Night. No, wait, it's the foil Human Frailty.
Things like that: if they are fitting themewise and are good enough card to be used in the deck anyway, I will slot 'em in with slightly higher priority than similar cards without appropriate flavor.

I have literally never thought about this and cannot think of a single instance in 7 years of playing EDH where I've put a commander's "card" in the deck.

Even though they're bad, casting Trostani's Judgment or Trostani's Summoner feels so good when Trostani, Selesnya's Voice is your general. I totally recommend it if you're just playing for fun. It kind of gets boring staring every list with the same staples.

6 and 7 mana never feels good unless they are amazing spells.
But I do know that a lot of Legends have spells that synergies with them. Most just stand at Judgment and Summoner power levels.
Teferi's Isle is a terrible card, but it has an interesting interaction with Teferi, Temporal Archmage, especially when trying to go infinite. For that reason alone it might be worth playing just to get to the mana needed to hit whatever threshold you need from tapping three permanents in order to go off (five mana with The Chain Veil, seven mana with Retraction Helix/Banishing Knack, etc.)

RG Titanshift. A deck made of cards too stupid for EDH.
Retired: Lots. More than I feel you should suffer through or I should type out.
Augustin, Rasputin, Bruna, Brago, Ojutai
The Mimeoplasm || Karador, Ghost Chieftain
Prossh, Skyraider of Kher || Vial Smasher/Tymna Group Slug
Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief || Talrand, Sky Summoner
Yidris - Unblockable Saboteurs || Kiki-Jiki, ETB breaker
Kess, Dissident Mage
Thanks you very much DarkNightCavalier for the Sig.
The flavor is never a point of consideration.
Slave of Bolas will probably make it into my Nicol Bolas deck. It just feels so mean it fits.
Dromoka's Command in Dromoka, the Eternal
Polymorphist's Jest, Polymorph and Mass Polymorph in Jalira, Master Polymorphist
Until recently, Giant's Ire in Brion Stoutarm. (and it is still on the consideration list to get back, tbh)
Anything with 'lightning' or 'storm' in Keranos, God of Storms, of course.
Jhoira's Timebug in the namesake's deck until I changed it to Keranos, heh.
