Baru, Wurmspeaker

Baru, Wurmspeaker is a straightforward go-wide green strategy that turns your Wurm tokens into oversize threats. Your gameplan revolves around building a board of increasingly large Wurm creatures, pumping them with Baru's static ability, and swinging for lethal damage. The activation ability lets you scale into the late game—early Wurms are expensive, but as your board grows, they get cheaper, letting you flood the table with fat tramplers. You're not looking for complex combos; just efficient Wurm generators and token doublers to maximize your army.

The deck wants efficient mana production to fuel both Baru's activation and your early plays. Green's ramp package (Sol Ring, Cultivate, Kodama's Reach) ensures you hit your land drops and have mana for tokens by turn five or six. Once Wurms hit the board, you're looking to synergize with anthem effects and token doublers like Doubling Season or Parallel Lives to accelerate your clock. Trample ensures your creatures punch through blockers, and Baru's static boost means even modest tokens become serious threats.

You'll win by assembling a critical mass of 4/4+ Wurms and attacking for commander damage or pure creature swarm damage. This is a midrange-to-aggro strategy that ramps into a overwhelming board, so lean into token synergies, cost-reduction effects, and ways to protect your army.
