I'm the guy who color-corrected this thing when it was spoiled at PAX. And I still can't believe I'm seeing "destroy target planeswalker", but there it is. Jund, anyone?

It's not quite Avada Kedavra- that goes to Abrupt Decay.
But it's Dark Side-colored. I'll let this one be called Force Choke, because it destroys things that breathe. :)

"Destroy target creature or planeswalker."

Terminate in sorcery form and you gain the ability to nuke a planeswalker
red/black must have.

So, this is the power of the spiral... Not bad, not bad at all.

This is so brutal... it does not have color restriction and even mighty planeswalkers will tremble.
I forsee reign of "Dies to Dreadbore" comment from now on...

Wow. An instant 5 from me. Great removal in two colours known for spot removal.

@Subtle_Kay
First off, it would kind of step on terminate if it was instant. It's not strictly better (if it were instant), but it is a lot better. Not that much stuff regenerates, and not many creatures that are actually threats have regenerate.
Another thing about instant speed planeswalker removal is that it is kind of a rules nightmare. It's simple to explain, but to some people, it makes absolutely no sense.
If I play a planeswalker and it resolves, I have 'priority'. This means it is my turn to do something and you can't do anything until I do something (or pass priority since I am not doing anything at the time). This means that unless I 'give' you priority, you can't do anything to my planeswalker, and I can use an ability. This is all rather complicated and players who play casually will likely do it wrong all the time.

As opposed to running out of loyalty counters and the planeswalker just leaving, this actually does kill them. Wonderful!
