Apart from tribal edh, you could build a low-on-creatures mono black deck that benefits from death.
Damnation on 7/9 commander-damaging legs is nothing to scoff at.
Then again, she doesn't exactly have legs, so...

I'm an old veteran player.
But Wizards just goes on and print stuff like this that awakens the Timmy inside of me! I mean destroy all others and I get to keep my BIG creature just for an insane amount of mana?! COUNT ME IN!!
5/5 for that!

I dig that art. Mythic gorgon sitting on a pile of petrified chumps.

@Goatllama Yeah, a Damnation that leaves a 7/9 on the board. With her friends. That's worth the same amount of mana.

I love me some gorgons. And this set already has a great start with 4 wonderful gorgons. Some people seem to think that this hints to a gorgon tribal. I doubt it, personally. Masked Gorgon cared about gorgons and we never got anything else to make it a tribe. Although I think it would be cool to have a gorgon tribe. I'm not going to hold my breath. More gorgons are always loved. And I personally like seeing Gorgons as a Big type like Dragon, Demon, Angel, Hydra, Kraken or Sphinx. They don't need a Tribal. They are just awesome as is. Making small 1/2 gorgons or what ever might be good in limited but I personally feel that it devalues the coolness factor of the creature type.

We went from 7 Gorgons in the entirety of Magic to 12 with just the release of Theros. Excellent.
Keep 'em comin', Wizards. Wouldn't mind seeing a few more Basilisks either ;)

Training Grounds can help reduce her Monstrosity ability cost and get that boardwipe out faster. Perhaps in the next two sets, cards will be printed that also lessen the monstrosity ability cost requirements.
Until then, sadly she will most likely only be included in casual or edh decks, the same as many other Timmy cards. I agree with everyone else though, that art is amazing, and she definitely has a place in my Golgari edh deck =)
