I am thinking of playing a red black deck with Quest of Pure Flame.

Sanguine Bond is so strong in a vampire deck that this card should be in any sanguine bond vampire deck or sideboard.
Great in casual multiplayer games. I have never been disappointed to draw this.

Feels really slow - as has been mentioned, unless you're playing against lifegain (which I guess makes this the anti-Felidar Sovereign), by turn 6, you're not going to be hitting for a whole lot most of the time.

I like to play multi player alot... But even in one on one, you're not ALWAYS going to have them as low where it does only 3-6 points, some have some pretty good life gain decks or decks that seem to just reck in one-on-one (white deck particularly)... So, still a useful card to have no matter what, just incase if nothing else (so, yeah I guess side boarded), better safe than sorry XD Plus it's a cool & fun card!
I look forward to using it with Sanguine Bond myself!

Good with Wound Reflection or Sanguine Bond.

Sanguine bond is worth it, if you're playing vampires. Lifelink, Corrupt-like effects, and straight-up gain aplenty. So if you've included a bond, you might as well run this. Not as a four-of, mind you. And it's too slow of a combo to turn it into a combo deck (well, unless you're not playing Standard, where you could find some black mana accelerant), but it's worth an inclusion for the potential 2-card win.

Love this Card in any Vamp deck with Sanguine bond.

For the same CMC you can do the Lich and repay in kind combo which kills all players, not just 1

I have a vampire deck. I was preparing for it ever since M10. I had Child of Night, Vampire Nocturnus, and Senguine Bond waiting. I was not disappointed.
From the start I knew Senguine Bond would be its perfect pair, and soon thereafter I was able to play the combo. Yes, this may not be oh-so-fast, but my deck is focused on Vampires, not this spell. This spell is just to finish my enemy when I'm done with them, or to end a game precisely. I've never had it countered. I've never had it stopped in any way. Timing is everything, and, in the very least, you can assure your game won't last longer than 6 rounds with Senguine Bond, swamps, and a Vampire or two.
