Like most cursers, Witch is a very powerful card, even in the presence of trashing or defensive reactions.
Witch is typically a card that all players will go for if present in the kingdom (as the risk of receiving more Curses than other players is too great), but as a terminal action it fits best in engines that will allow more than one Witch to be played in a turn (Village/Witch being a simple example, with Village providing an extra action and the extra benefit of Witch increasing hand size at the same time as attacking other players). Beyond the obvious advantage of being able to give out multiple Curses to other players in one turn, an effective Witch engine can wipe out the Curse pile quickly, thus eliminating the attack effect of other players' Witches or other cursers.
