"Survival of the fittest" After deciding to make the deck better, faster & far stronger although it had won plenty games as Nicol Bolas, PlaneswalkerThe deck is now capable of a 3rd turn Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker drop (Most commonly 4th turn) which tends to be quite devastating to any deck that doesn't do much by 4th turn. I've recently discovered although it should have been obvious that the deck has trouble against decks with protection from black.This newly redone Nicol Bolas deck is unfit for actual tournament play although it wasn't meant for any official tournaments in the first place now, it's definitely unfit for official tournaments due to the 3 sol rings which it does fine without & would simply require a tournament legal ramp, or any other effective ramp.
