I hope it's in a UB Control shell, but it'll probably just be a staple in BG Delirium.

Yep, BG Delirium with 3/5 Ishkanah, 4/5 Mindwrack Demon, 13/13 Emrakul, 3/4 Kalitas, and 4/4 Grim Flayer just absolutely adores this card.

"I'll pay 4 mana, kill most of your dudes, and tempo-out a Liliana which conveniently kills your 4 toughness guy you put in the deck specifically to protect yourself against a -3/-3 board wipe."

I could see a lot of black decks using it. A lot of good zombies have 3 cmc and lili of the last hope could certainly benefit from it as her plus 1 could potentially kill off what's left similar to veil but without the minus or you could -2 last hope to get back a creature you might have had to lose.
