This card is best in red burn decks with a lot of Pyroclasm effects. Once you start locking your opponents down by killing their creatures, you can safely start to cast your own to get in for those last point of damage. Might be expensive, but it's a pretty decent win condition - take away their lands, and they wont be much of a threat.

It would be better if it would be cheaper.

Name me a few cards that wouldn't be better if they were cheaper.

Kerhan: Any card with cascade, or Scornful Egotist :P Lateral: Doesn't change the fact, the test was just to name a few, right?
Those cards have high mana costs for a reason. Given their purpose, they wouldn't be as effective if they were cheaper.
Izzet:
Point taken. But they still would suck at a lower CMC. :D

@Kurhan Arguably, some sunburst cards. Although, that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

This card can be amazingly effective against some decks in EDH. Generals like Kresh, Teysa or Rhys have to answer it if they want to win. It's even worse for Kiki-Jiki decks, because they have next to no means to deal with it.

Don't play this one if you like having friends.
