Rationale

4cmc instant — exile creature or planeswalker, gain 2 life. Premium black catch-all removal with lifegain rider. Signature in control/midrange for the unconditional exile and incidental 2-life boost. {2}{B}{B} mana cost is pip-heavy (double black), making it color-locked in 3+ color shells. Off-curve cost (4cmc) excludes it from aggro and burn where the mana slot is wasted.
