While tuning up my current Nicol Bolas deck, Nicol Bolas, Jerk, I had an idea. Nicol Bolas is a badass and although he usually has various minions and pawns under his employment, he himself is certainly a capable sorcerer. So why not make a list with him as the only creature and thus make the deck literally be Nicol Bolas as himself slinging spells at opposing planeswalkers (i.e., the other players)?

...I'm really hoping you understood that was a rhetorical question. Anyway, comments and suggestions are appreciated. Cheers.
