­Pharika's Cure/Sorin's Thirst + Disfigure

I really wanted to avoid this being either and less than 3 mana to give more options for control, but making it similar to Defeat is much better for aggro (since there are a lot of X/3s for 1 or 2 mana).

Keeping it at a very aggressive mana cost for now, but will probably end up moving this to {2}{b} eventually, since Black feels a little strong to me.

I pesonally am a fan of -N/-N over N damage to a creature. It helps set apart black from Lightning Helix.

Aye, since this isn't -0/-2 (which would be weird) this is most certainly strictly better than Pharika's Cure and the like. {2}{b} is quite often used cost for these cards (Douse in Gloom) and for common it might be more reasonable just for the sake of 'splashability'.

That's reasonable. Cost adjusted.

BB > 2B

Turns out this is probably okay for {1}{b}, as per Moment of Craving.
