Here's mine:

Super Bolas, the Un-Balanced
Planeswalker - Bolas
+2: Each opponent discards a card. Draw a card.
-2: Untap and gain control of target creature until end of turn. It gains haste until end of turn.
-7: Each opponent discards their hand. You draw cards equal to the number of cards discarded this way, or 7 cards, whichever is greater. Cast your next spell this turn without paying its mana cost.

I actually was able to conceive two new versions of Bolas, so here is my first version:

Nicol Bolas, the Dark Lord Show

Nicol Bolas, the Dark Lord

Casting Cost:

Planeswalker - Bolas

Loyalty: 5

[+2]: Nicol Bolas, the Dark Lord deals 2 damage to target creature or player. Look at the top two cards of your library. Put one of those cards into your hand and the other on the bottom of your library.

[-4]: destroy target nonland permanent. You draw cards equal to its converted mana cost.

[-10]: destroy all creatures and all other planeswalkers. They cannot be regenerated.

Bolas's first ability is modeled after Prophetic Bolt, representing his capacity for careful planning and scheming. His second ability represents him eliminating a specific threat, and acquiring knowledge from the experience. His final ability represents him utterly destroying all who oppose him, which is likely to be used as a last resort, because it also destroys his allies.

Here is my second version:

Nicol Bolas, Tyrant of Terror Show

Nicol Bolas, Tyrant of Terror

Casting Cost:

Planeswalker - Bolas

Loyalty: 5

[+2]: reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a land card. Nicol Bolas, Tyrant of Terror deals damage to target creature or player equal to the number of cards revealed this way. Then put the revealed cards on the bottom of your library in a random order.

[-4]: untap target nonland permanent and gain control of it until end of turn. That permanent gains haste until end of turn.

[-10]: you get an emblem with "whenever an opponent casts a spell, that player loses 1 life, discards a card, and sacrifices a permanent."

In this version, Bolas's first ability represents him discarding several complex schemes to simply directly damage his adversaries. His second ability is him seizing control of something, as he is so fond of doing. His final ability represents him destroying his opponents in a slow and sinister manner, gradually and subtly breaking them down, rather than annihilating them in a grand and dramatic fashion.
