Meteor Golem
Removal stapled to a body, sold at the price colorless has to charge for it. Seven mana buys a 3/3 that no combat math will ever justify, but the body was never the product. The destruction clause is: destroy target nonland permanent an opponent controls is the broadest such answer available to a deck running no colored sources at all. It kills creatures, enchantments, artifacts, planeswalkers, anything off the manabase, and that generality is what pays the tax. Colored removal buys a narrow target at a cheap rate; this buys "anything" for seven mana and a fragile shell. The structural value is that it carries no color identity, so any deck short a flexible answer in its own colors can reach for it, and any way to blink or reanimate the golem fires the destruction again. The 3/3 left behind is incidental: a chump blocker, a Crew pilot at best. Read it not as a creature with a bonus but as a hard answer to a problem permanent that happens to leave a body on resolution, priced for the slot where a colorless deck is willing to wait until turn seven to erase whatever hurts it most.
