EDH, this as General. Feed the Pack. Let's say you starrt off sacking 5 creatures to make him a 25/25, then break him open at the end of turn for 25 2/2s. Then next turn you pay 7 and sack those 25 for a 625/625. At end of turn, break him again, giving you an army of 625 2/2 wolves. And then on the next turn, if you're feeling particularly dickholish, pay 9 mana for (I shit you not) a 390,625/390,625. And then break him AGAIN if you want to.

Now, this of course implies perfect casting conditions, but seriously, three turns and he's into six digit numbers. One more and he hits the billions. It's kind of ridiculous, but in the most lovely of ways.

With the deck he ships with, it is very, VERY feasible to be able to sacrifice anywhere over 5 creatures. I just played a match where I sacrificed 10 tokens on playing him. Nothing is better than being able to negotiate with a 100/100 beatstick.

Crazy! I think you could argue that this card would be too powerful if it had trample or shroud/hexproof at this cost.
10 creatures sacked = 100/100!

Another way to think about the calculation if anyone is getting mixed up (or just doesn't like math):
number of creatures sacrificed times that same number
So, 8 creatures sacked: 8 X 8 = 64
Also known as squaring the number if you're familiar with that. So take the number of creatures sacrificed and square that number.

"The Worm is meant to riot. By his breath he changes man, and then he consumes him. All men. Everywhere. There is no escaping the Worm.
When all is done, the Worm will tower over the wasteland he has made...
He will call out to the stars that the thing is accomplished. And that, finally, will make the passing of man...
Then the three hundred and sixty-nine children of the Ogdru Jahad will wake and come up out of their prisons in the earth and in the sea.
Then the Ogdru Jahad will wake. The Seven Who Are One. The Serpent...
They will cast off their chains, come out of their prisons, and burn the Earth...
Make of it a blackened cinder...
And that will be the end.
"

-Hellboy: Conqueror Worm

All hail the Conqueror Worm!

Casting cost is secretly 7 mana because you're gonna want two open for Fling. After a few instances of instantly ganking whoever removed him dead, people will probably stop doing that.
