this nicol bolas is by far the best elder dragon. In fact, it almost has a first-turn win condition, believe it or not. For example:

opening hand: swamp, dark ritual, dark ritual, dark ritual, nicol bolas, pox, shallow grave. Go second for the draw, getting The Rack.

play the swamp, then all three dark rituals. Play Pox, discard nicol bolas. play shallow grave, returning bolas, attack for 7, opponent discards hand. play the rack, take one mana burn.

Pox makes every player lose 1/3 of their life, discard 1/3 of their hand, sacrifice 1/3 of their creatures, and 1/3 of their lands, rounded up each time.
That's 7 life, any one-drop creature they might've played, and their first-turn land.
Then nicol bolas hits for another 7, bringing them to 6, and then the rack deal 3 damage to them on their turn, bringing them to 3 life.

all you need is 3 more damage to win...

on your second turn...

If you have the mana dropping this monster could give you the game. The turn after Nicol Bolas Comes into play he creates up to a 7 card (in hand) and 7 life difference. Swing with this a couple of times and if they're not dead, they'll be so crippled that you can let the Bolas die and kill them with any damage you can deal from your hand and/or your creatures without fear of counterspells.
