This deck does a bit of everything, solid sift to dig for cards you are chasing, good control and board presence with some pretty intuitive KO options, An alt win condition that is actually viable thanks to Accept your destiny, and a really, really beefy curve thanks to Ilsa. By turn 3 if we haven't seen our new and improved, Ilsa's going to get it for us. otherwise, nothing wrong with either Abjuration for a clutch brick, or a total anarchy to keep their curve honest.

Why New and Improved?

Because on turn 5, you can free play night master, KO it and drop an 11/11 5 drop Nightmaster with a lifegain engine in it.
OR
KO that blue devil you had on 2, gain some decent endurance, then drop a 12/12 big blue, that will promise 8 more endurance on his KO. Along this train of thought, we have zatanna at 3 and 6 as well!

The staple Shadowpact support shines here, with double conclaves, but the power of grigori and the Thule support really shows that Shadowpact has been paying endurance for nothing. I mean why run divination and pay 3 endurance when you can just do the exact same thing for free with Wake the Devil? Sometimes, it pays to be evil.
