"but then the answer became a separate even larger problem."

Haha, new to Magic, aren't you? That's just Wizard's style.

"Ooooo! These titans are so cool!"
"Uh... how are people going to be able to handle these things if they hit the board?"
"No worries, I've already submitted 8 more cheap removal spells. It'll balance out, right?"

Because I want to play black, even when I'm not playing black.

Comparable to Snuff Out. Both cards could cost you 4 life. Snuff Out requires a swamp and no mana and Dismember costs no swamp but one mana, or two mana and two life, etc. Idk which is better but I personally prefer this card because hard casting it is a bit easier than hard casting snuff out.

Best in decks that are unable or are challenged to support Murder and/or Unmake.

In mono-Black, Black & White, or primarily Black decks, I'd actually rather play Murder and/or Unmake. This card targets just like they do (repelled by Shroud/Hexproof), and Unmake gets rid of bigger Indestructible creatures than this does.

Only a couple of main aspects support the use of Dismember over Unmake in mono-Black or heavily Black decks. For one thing, Dismember can be cast using only 1 (generic) mana and either 4 life or 2 life and a Black mana. This gives it a form of versatility that Unmake lacks. For another thing, Unmake keeps the targeted creature out of the reach of Animate Dead, Rise from the Grave, and cards with similar effects. Dismember keeps the creature within reach.

Of all the things Dismember has going for it, the coolest is that it... (see all)

1BlackBlack or 1 and 4 life to get rid of almost any threat. Well worth it in most decks, even those without any black sources. 5/5

So... This cards kills damn near everything in the game below Titan level of power... It murders creatures with indestructibility... AND It only costs 1?

O.o
