A 4/4 Bolas feels really weird.
CMC 4 Bolas feels really weird.
Considering that Vaevictis Asmadi, the Dire and Nicol Bolas, the Ravager both seem to be part of a cycle of 6/6 dragons for CMC 6, everything above feels really weird.
In the first story, it says Bolus is a runt so a 4/4 compared to a 6/6 would make sense. Now if they added a few lines to the story to accommodate a change from development could be possible.
Unfortunately, while cute attempts, those don't actually work. All that would manage to do is to kill the new Flip-Bolas.
Transform is a very specific instruction, to turn the permanent over, so the other face is up. Note this happens without it leaving the battlefield and re-entering, it just changes the characteristics of the permanent. But as the other side is a Planeswalker, that would mean it has no loyalty counters (Unless you found some way to put counters on him BEFORE trying this.) so Bolas would just be sent to the graveyard due to State-Based Actions.
That is why Bolas (and all the Origin Flip-Walkers), exile themselves first, before returning them transformed. So they can re-enter the battlefield as Planeswalkers, with loyalty counters.
He just forgot to add Oath of Gideon, but for all that work I would rather just pay the mana.
Cool card, but I honestly like the other versions of Bolas better. Flipped he doesn't even deal with creatures by himself, which I find strange. Completely misread that. He is a killer. I like him a bit better now. Still very hard to flip and protect, but if he did instant flip would be too good.

Oops, saw that as plansewalker...guess he does kill anything lol
