What's nice is that if you hardcast it in other colors, you'll have the land to fetch most anything you need.
And there needs to be colorless tutoring. I don't get how that's a particularly "black" effect.

I feel this could be fine @ instant speed.

I am probably incorrect to think that, but I still think it's possible for an instant speed tutor to be ok.

Noteworthily, you can put this in a 5 color EDH deck, and likely enough have no qualms about paying even {4}{B} for it. In 60 card decks, you just don't use this card if you're not paying {B}{B}{B} because you want to be playing fast and a bit Spikey.

In 100-card decks, a) your games go longer, and b) you'll be playing higher-costing cards with your more amount of lands. 5 mana to tutor up a haymaker is fair, 5 mana to tutor more draw or tutor effects to fuel a combo, which is the 60-card use I see for it, is considered too slow.

In a properly rainbow-colored deck with lots of Duals, you might even get to cast it for {B}{B}{B} but {4}{B} is honestly not a deal-breaker to get some things. It's just a really, really versatile tool for {B}/X decks.

The fact that this is played in legacy and diabolic tutor is not should pretty much put that argument to rest.
