g/b and g/b/w controlish decks are getting popular, I think Life/death would make a solid addition. Death can bring back a goyf (or someone else) for 2 mana and 2 life, while life can be a sneaky win condition towards the end of the game.
If Death allowed you to take a creature from an Opponent's GY then yes this could be playable with all the Goyfs in the format. Because it doesn't this card blows.
Or you could play Unearth for 1 mana and 0 life and get Goyf back. Because the Life side sure isn't useful. Or for 1 mana and 2 life you can Reanimate an opposing Goyf
I tried 1-2 in Train Wreck splashing green. With Life you can go infinite with Staff of Domination and Cabal Coffers or sometimes you can just overrun the opponent. Death on the other hand wasn't so good. So all in all it's not that awesome.
The main problem is that there is as far as I can see no deck that can abuse both sides of the card.
