Thanks for providing links! I might make 4c omnath.

Of the four, I've had Omnath, Locus of Rage the longest. I initially swapped back and forth with Xenagos, God of Revels a few times, and I felt Omnath won more games. Plus it spooks away and can win off of board wipes.
Omnath, Locus of Mana because I'd built so many G/x decks that I had a lot of overflow. Going with Snow-Covered Forests and Extraplanar Lens leveled it up, among other things. They're always printing green bombs (cough cough Nyxbloom Ancient)
Omnath, Locus of the Roil steps on the Gruul version's toes. They often feel like the same deck imho. This guy might even do it better. Adding blue and the straight value from the commander + lands likely makes this the most competitive when built right.
I took apart temur omnath to build Omnath, Locus of Creation and can't wait for it to release n play some games. I think this will be more of a high risk/reward deck due to four colors.
Someday I'll rebuild roil, but for now I'll rock , , and

Rage is my favorite so far, but Creation looks sweet and I'm somewhat tempted to rebuild my Rage deck as a Creation deck.

I have to go with the OG. The others may be a little more powerful or interesting or have more variety, but I simply like the uniqueness of the mono green Omnath. Also, he looks kind of cute before he got all angery.

I personally like Roil, though I like the effects of Rage just looking at it. Roil is a solid lord, and he's fairly easy to get out if you get the right lands. He provides good utility, and can give you card draw which is sick (and easy thanks to what Temur wants you to do anyway). Creation and Mana aren't bad, just not my favorites.

OG Omnath is my favorite but the best in my opinion is Temur Omnath. But I love them all and can't wait for WUBRG Omnath!!

I may be slightly biased. Angry, 'splody Omnath is definitely best.

I mean, I'm just sad that they didn't make Omnath's creature type "Legendary Creature - Elemental Locus" just so that Cloudpost could get extra bang for buck. Lost opportunities.

I prefer the original omnath. I’ve never been a fan of landfall strategies but I’ve always been a fan of big green monsters

Links for everyone else: Omnath, Locus of Mana, Omnath, Locus of Rage, Omnath, Locus of the Roil, and Omnath, Locus of Creation.
My favorites?
Omnath, Locus of Mana and Omnath, Locus of Creation, the newest and oldest respectively, until we get 5c Omnath, Locus of Destruction.
The thing is, I love mana, and these are the best at that.
