Too many combos with Venser.
One of the more simple ones, yet one of my favorites.

venser seprated himself into two when he closed the gate, so even tho one did die there is another venser in a different dimension, so venser still alive!!! so it is possible for him to come back. i dont think wizards will do it, but it is possible

Off topic question: does anyone know if wizards will do another unglued thing again?

I've got to say that this is my favorite planeswalker in existence. So, I run a White-Blue Knight deck, and my friend generally responds with his pet Blue-White-Red control deck, which stars a playset of "Sphinx of Jwar Isle", with not many other permanents. When I finally acquired Venser, and put him in, my friend just chuckled, and mentioned what a pity it was that Venser wouldn't do much against a deck where his only important nonland permanents were shrouded. As a result, I didn't encounter any resistance in getting to 10 counters and setting off the killer -9, at a time when he had a single Sphinx out, and no other permanents. On my next turn, I cast a pair of "Leonin Skyhunter", again causing my friend to laugh. "Okay,", I said smugly, "I'll exile two Islands." At the end of that game, my friend vowed never to be Venser'd again.

@Kezia, I'm glad that Wizards decided to prove you wrong, even if his new art sucks

I play Venser in my EDH Zedruu the Greathearted. If you aren't happy with the way your opponent is using your permanents, this is nice way gettin' them back :-)
Other obvious combo is of course creatures which trigger something, when they enter the battlefield (Like Æther Adept). Nice way making opponet cry if their creatures just pop back into their hand ;)

Works efficiently with the new Thragtusk. Exile him, gain 5 life and a 3/3 beast

Venser's first ability is the key here.
Throw in a Mistmeadow Witch and a Deadeye Navigator, and if you save up enough mana in your pool, you should be able to keep recasting creatures several times per turn. If you play a WUB deck around Venser, you're going to want a Massacre Wurm, just like Ferlord said. Keep resetting the wurm with Deadeye Nav and you should be set for life.

Even using cheapo commons over and over can be great, such as Cathedral Sanctifier and Farbog Boneflinger. I'm currently using the duel deck that Venser came in, but it would be so easy to make a deck for him that's standard. With the ability to keep resetting soulbond, it's a damn shame he is leaving in october!

So many possibilities I cannot count. Venser is in the running for best planeswalker.
