It's not about winning, it's about power.

Possible repeated removal, card advantage, deck thinning (so you hopefully draw less lands), discard fodder, reliable land drops with less land in the deck, and a nice way to get out giant Demons in casual, or huge Drain Lifes. Consider Throne of Geth and Grim Affliction to T5 her ultimate, you can do this at instant speed, leaving 2 lands untapped as well as your swamp from last turn untapped; giving you 12 mana to drop on whatever you feel. T5 with 12 {B} is a powerful thing in the right deck. To make it reliable have your backup plan be Crypt Ghast for 10 {B}.
This is planeswalker is so Timmy it's awesome.
Even if she's usually a slow Tithe, she can be pretty useful just for making your deck reliable in the late turns of the game.

With corrupt and nightmare, glad to see this liliana make another appearance. Plus we still have our RtR cycle of dual swamps to fetch with her, making multi color or ever prismatic feasible.

Card advantage in the form of lands is still card advantage. This is the only four mana planeswalker that draws you one card a turn while increasing loyalty. Great way for control decks to hit their land drops.

So I figured out the flavor behind tutoring Swamps. Your hand in basically your mind, it's what you're thinking about, right? And she fills your mind with Swamps, a.k.a. dirty, filthy things that cause you to do ruthless things and kill people?
Next step: google search Liliana rule 34, then tell me your mind isn't filled with all sorts of nasty, filthy thoughts XD

I like this card, don't get me wrong, but those abilities just feel weird on Liliana. She should be doing stuff with destruction, discard, or reanimation. Not mana ramp.

This might be more useful now that Corrupt is back.

@ Feral: Dark Ritual is arguably the most iconic black card of all time.
