I think this card is great. As with many other cards it is just a matter of how you set it up.
Obviously I would never play it if I wasn't absolutely sure I could handle whichever treachery was revealed by it.
There are cards that help to avoid a game ender such as Get Behind Me! or Black Widow.
In multiplayer it is even better, because other players can help with preventing the treachery and/or modifying the order of the treachery deck (Global Logistics).
