    I have a deck for this commander, but its themed around the book/movies Dune. Baru is Muad'dib, mana elves for the Fremen, Wurms for the Sand Worms, and various cheat into play effects for the thumpers. I make constant references to Dune while I play and everyone has a good time whether I win or not lol.

    As someone who recently built a deck around this guy, i can say it’s definitely a fun option. Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, Nyx lotus can help with mana boosts, Patriar's Seal as a mana rock/commander enabler, and Natural Order to get out a big Wurm to help with the commander ability.

    One card I’ve been running is arachnoform. It turns our commander into a changeling, gives +2/+2 itself and grants reach. It makes the commander a great blocker that makes himself reduce the ability cost down to just one green. Tuned stalagtite(?) is a cheap equipment that isn’t quite as good, but also grants changeling, giving Baru his own buff!

    Maskwood Nexus works pretty good too, it can generate wurms but makes Baru a 5/5 wurm too. I have to say, Arachnoform looks real clever for Baru, I didn't know about it until this post. Runed Stalctite is probably more consistent, as it's more resistant to removal.

    It would fit well into one of my existing infinite mana combos + Kamahl, Fist of Krosa repeatable overrun effect. I think Baru is even the other Fist of Krosa. It would require Sword of the Paruns to repeatedly untap it, but that's part of all my monogreen infinite mana combos already.

    Leaving "Scale Up" out of the 99 feels like a major flavor fail. Personally, I blame Eddie (Eddie you're great!). It can turn Baru into a wurm, buffing himself, or be overloaded for a blowout overrun effect. Every creature turned into an 8/6 wurm with trample, and it has a giant wurmy boi for the art, all for under a dollar, yes please!

    Could be good in wurm tribal, issue is the cost of getting the casting cost reduction off the ground is rather high. Ramp is of course the answer but your gonna probably need 5 mana for any wurm your gonna want to run below that they have downsides . some rather significant such as that of Tempting Wurm, its a 5/5 for 1 and a green but your opponents get to dump their hands on to the board when it resolves. Just not worth it. Not saying it's a commander strategy just that it's gonna need a bit to get humming so definitely not for Cedh nor for groups who play faster decks.
