Fun with Fist of Suns and Prismatic Omen.
If you find yourself on the wrong end of Bolas' wrath, just hope you're packing Dreadbore.

@Damn-good: Read the magic rulings on planeswalkers.
Amazing control card - gets rid of anything you don't like, takes what you want and game-winning ultimate. Expensive but amazing if you can get it out. 4/5.

so good but takes soooo long to get out. I'm glad I own a copy cuz he is fun to play but I doubt I'd ever take him to a Modern night and expect to get him into play.

I didn't know how lucky I was to draw him in my first toolkit but it took me a while to get around making a R/U/B deck, strangely I haven't officially win a game with nicol bolas, so far everybody just quit whenever I play him.
overall: annoying ability but you have to work to summon him, and boy does it feel satisfying when you play him 4.9/5

I made a deck with him and 3 other planeswalkers. Was in a 3 person game. My friend Played Avacyn Angel Of Hope and I had Bolas in my hand. Mana ready and all. Played him took control of her :) Wreaked Havoc all the time with my Bolas deck :) :)

I've been trying to build a deck around this guy for awhile now. Its not perfect, but one thing is certain, if you drop this guy and your opponent doesn't have:
a) A counter or really powerful burn
b) A Dreadbore
or
c) A Vampire Hexmage
Then your opponent weeps. Oh such bitter tears does he weep. I've played him several times thanks to Gilded Lotus and no one I've faced has ever managed to kill him through brute force.

I run this in my Scion EDH deck, 'cause, you know, he's FREAKING NICOL BOLAS, the baddest-ass dragon of ALL TIME! Also, it's a great card or whatever.

Karn Liberated didn't quite poop on this guy, but he pretty much did. He can exile any permanent, make players 'discard' to exile, and his ultimate also makes you win. All that, and he costs less, and is completely colourless.
He's definitely not worse than karn though. His abilities are actually quite a bit more powerful. Karn is just more likely to land and do something.

Nicol Bolas does not bother with pointless superlatives, for he is
