Hey, Zoah, I can see where you're coming from. But the fact of the matter is white and green both the colors that have the most significant creature threats (not to mention black's enemies on the color wheel- yay flavor!).
Does this card belong in your main deck? Probably not, but for one black mana you ought to seriously consider putting this "crap" into your sideboard.
One black mana kills: Sun Titan, Primeval Titan, Vengeful Archon, Knight Exemplar, Angelic Arbiter, Vengevine, Baneslayer Angel, Duskdale Wurm, and let's not forget the early game where you may not want to waste your more flexible Doom Blade taking out things like Elite Vanguard, Birds of Paradise, or Llanowar Elves which could be critical to establishing board co... (see all)

Use a mono-black deck?
Sideboard the hell out of it.

Doesn't kill Gideon. I like Go for the Throat or Doom Blade for 1 mana more at instant speed.

Artwork: 5/5
Flavor text: 5/5
Card itself: Well, it's on par with Flashfreeze, both are sideboarded in my U/B, so 3.5/5.
Total: 4/5

Autumn's Veil (green) - A defensive counterspell (Hindering Light) when Vines of Vastwood is almost as good.
Combust (red) - Deathmark always works for 1‚ this USUALLY works for 2.
Deathmark (black) - A one mana mono-Terminate.
Flashfreeze (blue) - Hard Cancel for U less.
Celestial Purge (white) - Strictly better than Iona's Judgement.
D.Counter = 1 or 2
Soft Removal = 2
Removal = 3
Counter = 2 or 3
Exile = 5 or 6
The message is clear: "BUY MORE WALLETSLAYER DVDS"
