Yeah as I stated in another comment, Absorb seems more like its a keyword for absorbing magical energy rather than damage. I see absorb as someting like:
Absorb
: Whenever a spell or ability targets this, counter that spell unless its caster pays
.
or Absorb
: Whernever a spell targets this, add 
to your mana pool.
It does have to watch for Red Burn players and white can prevent damage. but yeah, it is risky
Still terrifyingly good in aggro black. Drop a Carnophage or any other 2/1 for 1 on turn 1, swing twice, then cast this turn 3 for Draco and game over. But you may be okay with that if this is the signature card for your set. Just be sure all colours have some early defence if you give black any early attackers.
