Oh lord how I wish he was cheaper... having said that, he's an absolute dynamo. Almost makes me want to work on a long game Grixis control deck just so I have the chance to use him more.

4.5 for style alone - nothing more.

definitely a great card, but i don't think he's the best planeswalker;
for one, i find his mana cost to be a big bump to get over. the different colors, one of them double, and 4 of any other. a bit hard to hard cast, and i can't think of anything off the top of my head that can get around that.

his first ability is insane in the sense that is can kill any other planeswalker, and any supporting cards your opponent has. if, however, your opponent has a ton of creatures out, nicol can't do a whole lot.
his second is good, but you probably won't use it as much as the first and last. still good though.

his third is, more often than not, a game changer, but not all the time. the seven damage isn't a huge deal, since he seems to fit a UB deck more, and those aren't big on burn.
the seven permanents is a big deal and can easily clear your field. even if you only sac seven lands, you're now down by a huge land amount. seven discard is also great, but if you have a great field, it's not a hug... (see all)

Why does it seem like he should be saying, "WHAT IS A MAN?"
