Keep in mind that I'm pretty sure it can kill any token for 1 mana. This card can have a place in your sideboard, though Terror and Doom Blade are normally more useful.

Not so much worse. There are decks against which terror and doom blade simply wont work. A black deck based around mechanics like these would likely win. Against a Terror deck.

Doom Blade decks would be better off throwing in some Soul Reap, even if it is a sorcery. Unless every creature is green AND black. Possible but unlikely.

Okay, kill a token/morph for Black
Otherwise, Eyeblight's Ending, Rend Flesh, and probably even Chill to the Bone are costed more efficiently than this.

I like this card for the same reason everyone else hates it. I'm not sure if it's the right proportion, but I like that it costs more to kill bigger things. That makes total sense. There's a red destroy target artifact spell that cares about converted mana costs that I think is templated better for both fairness and usefulness. This has fair down loads better than Doom Blade, though it is a bit lacking in the usefulness department.

A 'destroy target non-black creature' spell with two modes: 1 for CMC 3 or less for just {B}, and one for CMC 6 or greater for...maybe 3{B}{B} would, I think, be what I'm looking for.
Leave the 4's and 5's alone because to make the card really right you'd want 3 modes, and 2-mode cards are just easier.

I mean, after thinking about it, I guess I understand why we have Doom Blade: Simplicity. But it still...doesn't feel right. Dismember, Last Gasp, and Grasp of Darkness just seem like more appropriate cards than Doom Blade or Terror. Making a single ... (see all)

I'm pretty sure the artist is really Robert Bliss, of Ekundu Cyclops fame. See Reanimate for another example....

Instant-speed black removal that can target black creatures is never a bad thing.
