Liesa's first ability isn't optional. You can't choose to pay mana to cover the "commander tax," even if you have that mana available.

2020-11-10wotc

Liesa's first ability applies only to the "commander tax." If there are any other additional costs to cast Liesa, those costs must be paid as normal.

2020-11-10wotc

Liesa's last ability will resolve before the spell that caused it to trigger.
