Long Goodbye the Numbers

What does Long Goodbye kill in Vintage? And does Doomsday care?
Out of the top 50 Creatures, and the top 7 Planeswalkers in Vintage, it hits twelve out of the thirteen we care about. The one we are concerned about that it misses is Sheoldred, The Apocalypse. Otherwise decent numbers.
But.
Despite not being counterable, Long Goodbye has three problems which makes it unlikely to see play in Vintage Doomsday.
- It's not Blue.
- It costs two.
- It doesn't cantrip.
We are not a Five Moxen deck. Two mana is a lot harder than one. This is why we play Steel Sabotage. While the numbers on Long Goodbye are good, I do not see it being played much in Doomsday sideboards. We might see a few this weekend, but I expect it to drop quickly.
Here's the charts, for your viewing pleasure.
