Or use Grave Pact to make every use of her a two-for-one.

Wow, in a 3player EDH this could be brutal for ganging up 2on1, in a temporary alliance to stop a player from dominating the game. Very nice political creature.

In one on one, this card isn't great, in multiplayer (I.E. EDH) its hillariously awesome as long as you have someone on your side, or at least someone who doesnt want to see it dead yet. "I'll kill your Copperhoof Vorrac and whatever my friend wants dead too.

Red's a color that doesn't mind losing its minor creatures if its important ones are safe. As long as Diaochan and your major attacker are protected, go ahead and use her. Or you can play two-color and give all creatures you control shroud. Or play Diaochan in multiplayer and use her ability only when the opponent is more likely to choose another player's creature to kill then one of yours. After all, nowhere does it say the opponent who gets to destroy a creature has to be the one whose creature was destroyed.

This is quite a flavorful card. (SPOILERS) In the Three Kingdoms story, Diaochan was an undercover agent sent by one of Dong Zhuo's enemies. Her main goal was to create a sense of distrust between Dong Zhuo and his trusted right hand man, Lu Bu. She created a love triangle so intense that Lu Bu eventually killed Dong Zhuo.

Yup, Privileged Position, Spiritual Asylum, or Steely Resolve.

She looks more like Discochan.

^^If this were your only creature your opponent would just target this, hehe. Now if she had shroud then it could work.

Getting rid of creatures by destroying rather than burning them is something seen only rarely in red, but the ability itself has clearly some red flavour.
Yet unless you have a way to regenerate the creature targeted by your opponent, make it indestructible or give it wither, this card is not that playable. And trying to do so might not be worth it either.
On the other hand, you could play her as your only creature, then destroying an opponent's theat each turn might be appealing.
