{sign in blood} ? Card draw, and there's nothing like zapping someone's last two life with it :)

What is your alternate win condition. Just in case something happens and you lose both your  {Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker} either milled or killed or countered or something.

Vampire nighthawks are nasty with under city plague cyphered on them and there's always fun to be had with soul ransom :) but this deck is still quite focused around bolas. It's still lots of fun though.

This. I've seen a grixis control deck win by turning the same {Snapcaster Mage} sideways for ten turns straight.
