Hmm. Seems like this could be quite good in multiplayer - but really naff in 2-player, where at least one time in three it'll gain you no life.

Maybe it could be improved and simplified by "Exile a card from the top of each players deck for each creature you control that died this turn. Gain life equal to the CMC of cards exiled this way"? That way it's really good if you sacrifice everything. Maybe too good, though. (Sacrifice 10 creatures, cast 4 of this...)

Also slight typo in the text - You've got a redundant 'each' there.
