Looks like something out of Hyeronymus Bosch's nightmares.

WAAAAY better than his "lord" cousin...because you don't have to build the rest of the deck around him if you're just using him to do his 7 damage. Swing, morph, then laugh.

LOVE this guy, but good ol' LoP is still better. yeah yeah yeah... turn 4 for this guy blah blah blah.
Lord of the Pit will NEVER fall to a shock (without outside help that is)
PS Lord of the pit is frequently seen on turn four in my decks too
that is all.

I think Missile Penguin actually missed an aspect in his unevitable Time Spiral this time, I feel like this might be supposed to be a callback and black counterpart to Exalted Angel, since you can also Morph it turn three, unmorph it turn four. Admittedly unfortunately, they didn't make it 2BlackBlack, else it might have seen quite some serious play as well.

Best thing about Liege of the Pit is that, as long as you don't take 6 damage from other sources and your opponent can't block it, you don't really need other creatures, because the Liege kills your opponent before killing you:

T3: Morph
T4: Swing, unmorph, opponent goes to 13.
T5: You go to 13, cast removal on potential blockers, swing, opponent goes to 6.
T6: You go to 6, cast removal on potential blockers, swing, opponent dies.

This (of course) only works if your opponent doesn't have any removal for your Liege, but if you play a bit of discard spells on the side you can lower the odds of that happening (Duress, Wrench Mind (or Ravenous Rats)/Thoughtseize and Hymn to Tourach if you want to be fancy).
