My first jank thought is casting Overwhelming Splendor on yourself and then exiling it with this. This card seems like a staple in anything that can run it.

That's not how that works. The person it's attached to doesn't own it. Everyone would get a copy and get to choose the player to stick it to.

Check out the thread for my cube if you have the time, and tell me how terrible it is.
Generals meant to be drafted first in a single pack of 6 cards.
And here is the actual cube, meant to be drafted in 4 regular sized packs. (60 card decks)
As fun as some of the other combos with this card are, there really isn't a BETTER target for it than Phage.
While Phage will instantly win you the game, Demonic Pact might be the most fun target, even if you die they keep the tokens. "Okay everybody you have 4 turns to kill everyone else..Go.."
I actually like the Leveler combo every bit as much, as it's less expensive to play, and you're not required to splash black for it (although the splash giving you more tutoring isn't bad). Phage DOES give you the insta-win though.

Also Leveler is a LOT easier to cheat into play than ol' Miss "you gotta play me fair and square" Phage

Nothing like a 10-mana combo that can be stopped in a thousand different ways where one of the pieces is completely dead until you find the exile spell. I agree though that it is better than the 12-mana combo with Phage.
EDIT: forgot to mention that if the combo is stopped you lose the game due to having no library. Just upsides all around.

Notice that I said "I like", not "I believe the only possible superior combo is".
Killing someone with a cloned Phage is powerful. Killing someone with a HORRIBLE card like Leveler is FUNNY. Personally, I prefer the latter. Sue me.
I mean, everyone gets a copy of a PW? I feel this card should have been in (and will be slotted in) hug decks.
Radiate makes everything more fun.

Doesn't work like that. Each copy starts at 0.
I am aware..but why would you exile your own pact..before you get the 3 benefits from it?
