Boros Noble Heritage background is hands down more interesting than green splash I keep seeing

The flavor on this card is great - and I would make him a commander and just load up on combat tricks to buff the goaded creatures. 100%. Trample, first strike, +3/+2, the whole lot. The only trouble would be running out of gas. Even then; watching everyone wonder what you’re top-decking and who’s going to get it? Perfect.

Reds card draw is good I don't think you'll be top decking. Also white has gotten some good card draw this year and last.

You could go Rakdos and go with Criminal Past as the background, focus on sacc effects or go full arena/circus thematic with Rakdos characters like Juri, Master of the Revue.

Criminal Past also naturally leads you to Tombstone Stairwell, an already innately funny card that becomes super-charged with Baeloth; if you can just buff him to at least 3 power, those tokens are going to slam into each other turn after turn, netting you Treasures which you can use to pay for the cumulative upkeep while your opponents continually take incidental damage.
Oh yeah and it's obvious since it can form a backup commander for the precon with Baeloth, but Clan Crafter is probably the best choice if you want to go izzet. Making all Treasures into Clues which also pump him isn't too bad.
(Tavern Brawler sadly only lasts until EOT, so you don't get to use the bonus to goad things into attacking for mono-red.)

Harmonic Prodigy doubles both the triggers from Baeloth Barrityl, Entertainer & Noble Heritage since background abilities originates from the creature commander. Worth keeping in mind for other creature/background pairings where triggers and wizards/shamans are involved.

Boros equipment, Colossus Hammer it up with a Puresteel Paladin or something, Mass Hysteria, and watch the table tear itself apart.
