Here's what most of you aren't getting.
1. This is Final Judgment at the very least, and easier to cast in a multicolored world.
2. This is comparable to Terminus, non-miracled. Deals with persist and indestructibles just as fine - arguably better.
3. This has three extra modes. More options = good. You don't have to ever use them except once or twice, but when you find yourself exiling all artifacts/enchantments it's because you really needed to and you'll be glad you did.
4. This deals with planeswalkers. This is unprecedented. No, Planar Cleansing doesn't count because it removes your keyrunes and your creatures as well if all you want is deal with 2+ walkers on the other side. This card deals with them and leaves you with your stuff.
Planeswalkers are very good cards against control decks. They are very, very hard to deal with outside of attacking/burning if your deck doesn't have access to Dreadbore. Take Bant Control, for example. Garruk Primal is a great card out of G/x decks against Bant Control because it's an awesome play after they sweep with Verdict or Terminus. You untap and lay a Garruk Primal. Now, if they don't have one of the 2-3 Detention Spheres in their deck, Garruk simply takes over. Most UWx decks are playing only 2 MD spheres, and O-ring is not seeing play. Planeswalkers are awesome against control decks.
With this card, it's less so. Now, their creature sweeper of choice can be Merciless Eviction and now they have more cards that can be used to deal with a Walker from the other side of the board. Even Keyrunes, which do appear in Jund/Naya/Dark Naya lists, can now be dealt with by this card if it's needed. Midrange players now have an incentive to commit threats of different types to the board (1 creature, 1 keyrune, 1 planeswalker), or just lose everything if they commit to only 1 type. 12+ walker decks, like SuperFriends, can now be kept in check much more easily.
Finally, this is a sweeper that isn't going to be dead in control mirrors. You can remove all their keyrunes. Or use yours to accelerate this and deal with their freshly-cast Planeswalker. Or just pay 6 to blow up a single big threat. Efficient? No. But sweepers are often dead in control mirrors. This card will never be.
Jace, Memory Adept is a very common SB tech in Ux control decks for the mirror. This card makes that plan less effective.
Yes, individually, paying 4WB for any of the 4 modes is overcosted. Big deal. This is 4 options in one, and two are very reasonably costed - Final Judgment with a WB cost rather than WW is very welcome, and being able to wipe planeswalkers and only planeswalkers for 6 is unprecedented and very good. The other two modes? Just gravy. They weren't needed.
This is like a "Sweeper Charm". This is a great card that will see tons of Standard play. Specially because of the VERY welcoming cost of 4WB, a blessing for 4 or 5-color control decks.

Excuse me sir, have you seen Scavenger Folk? Or perhaps Word of Command?
