Tormod's?

This was what i came up with. A few different options here, but mostly beat face with 5/5 indestrucables and combat trick them with {ghostly flicker} surprise killing their dudes and placing extra counters to keep them around. If that doesnt work aearch for the {bonfire of the damned} or {door to nothingness} and end it. And yes {nicol bolas, planeswalker} does need to be in here.

I would prefer to have an elixir or needle than a cript round one at least.

{Pithing Needle} mainboard? Does it work well?

Untested. I have an extensive knowledge of the meta and the other players and can often name their plays before they make them. So it's easy for me to make good use of cards like {pithing needle} and {nevermore}.
