Kingslayer on a Frenzy Barb?

I recently found a Gul off of my Frenzy Barbs Hell HF, and thanks to Hell Countess I was already in possession of a Mal rune. Before I begin searching and cubing like mad for an Um, is Kingslayer a solid choice for a Frenzy Barb? It looks pretty on paper, but so do many things.

It's decent... if you are vanilla. But you are RWM, right? Then take a look at this:

Oath
4 Socket Swords/Axes/Maces
Shael + Pul + Mal + Lum
30% Chance To Cast Level 20 Bone Spirit On Striking
Indestructible
+50% Increased Attack Speed
+210-340% Enhanced Damage (varies)
+75% Damage To Demons
+100 To Attack Rating Against Demons
Prevent Monster Heal
+10 To Energy
+10-15 Magic Absorb (varies)
Level 16 Heart Of Wolverine (20 Charges)
Level 17 Iron Golem (14 Charges)

Compared to this Kingslayer doesn't make alot of sense.

Just a thing $6, you just missed the property of "indestructible" from the runic weapon, you should have made the runeword on an ethereal berserker axe.

Make the runic item again

I'm confused. That runeword isn't listed on DII.net but on another website, it's listed as ladder-only?

as nex pointed out, 6$ is playing RWM (Runeword Mod) - this enables all of the ladder-only RW's in single-player. If you want/need more info, have a look at Cattleya's 'Game Mods and You' thread that's in the FAQ.
