This would utterly DESTROY Scorpio... I'd play one of these in any Rainbow deck. Probably in place of a Water Card (although Life steps on Jade Shield and Empathic Bond... but this is probably better than EB, since it can assure certain victory on some opponents). I don't like the card, completely shutting down a whole strategy with just a card is bad (I even dislike Jade Shield because it makes Decay trivial...).
While this would admittedly make Scorpio much easier, its not an insta-win. Running more than one at a time takes a dedicated deck, which would likely fail against other gods. You do understand it doesn't cast Purify, just reverses Poison counters, right?

Poison counters hitting ONCE then desappearing would just destroy Poison decks. Scorpio, PVP decks...
