At least bolas is vulnerable to creatureless, but it takes a while. Tezz2 (in AER-event) is straight forward, you don't have time.

I build up his ultimate and use the following deck.Supports: (5)Raiders WakeDragon's HoardSubmerged Boneyard Zhalfirin Void Sorcerer's Wand Spells (5)Vraska's ContemptDuressMind RotDivestNightsnare I would run the 6 mana discard rare spell from Origins over Divest if I had it. Strategy is simple get Ultimate and Wake out spam discard spells draw either via Hoard or first ability. Hold a Contempt for his one creature. It will take a little while to it will beat him every time.Wand isn't a must have but the 2 damage a turn does help.Nightsnare is in to get the last goal (3 spells costing 12+) Try to fit in Masterminds Acqusition and steal Imminent Doom from Bolas. Makes it a bit faster.

Machine said: I like the event and the new objectives, but I totally despise they random chance of not being able to play the last or even last two recharges. Events should account for people's sleeping times. For your reference: The second last recharge in my time zone was Sunday midnight 0:00 hours and the last recharge, when boss health was at 1%, was Monday morning 6 AM. Those are unhealthy times...
I like RotGP for much of the same reasons that @Kinesia stated. It is an old friend that still produces challenges. I for one don't buy into the whole issue about how it only takes legacy cards to beat the final boss into submission in 60 seconds or less or it will take hours. (I am exaggerating but you get the gist).
The whole point of a final boss is to be tough... and this version of bolas is no where near the difficulty as AMK's bolas as a final boss... in that scenario Hibernium designed the event to require Cast out and Approach of the Second Sun in order to defeat him and meet the objectives. A complaint that we all voiced out repeatedly and Hibernium retired that event when HOU was released; it was that hated.
Anyways, I loved the objective changes but logic tells me that if you're gonna update the objectives you should at least update the rewards to reflect the most recent set.
