Skill Design
This skill is powerful, but has a very small radius of effect. Possibly this can be increased with a runestone. As it is, GotD requires precise aim and timing to hit a moving target.
The visual is creepy, putting what looks like brown worms that are constantly wriggling in and out of the victim.
This skill was present on the pre-made Witch Doctor in the Blizzcon 2010 Arena, and was shown to be quite effective. Flux wrote about it in his length PvP hands-on report. [1]

Hard to hit a moving target with this one since the radius of effect was very small, but hugely useful if you managed it.
