This card, Despise, would be beneficial in a mono-black control deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's strategy by removing key creatures or planeswalkers from their hand before they can be played. While Despise is a decent option for hand disruption, a stronger alternative could be Thoughtseize, which not only allows you to choose any nonland card but also lets you take it regardless of its type. Whether Despise should see play ultimately depends on the specific strategy and meta of the deck you are building, but it can definitely be a useful tool in the right context.
