So awesome, but not for constructed play.
@Imura:
Unless stated otherwise by the card text, a permanent enters the battlefield under the control of the player who controlled the ability that put it there. So in other words, it works exactly as expected.

Wow, if you use him in a regen deck and put two or four of these, You could destroy and regenerate creatures all day. Get some untap spells or an artifact to do the trick.

This Vampire is a very good end gamer EXCEPT against decks like blue black or blue white control decks since of cost, and isnt great against a no creature burn deck, but TAKING someones creature, adding it to your army of vampires as a VAMPIRE is a great effect against green or red fatties. Don't forget eldrazi or creatures with great effects.
@EvilCleavage His effect says that the creature must enter the graveyard, not regenerate.
@Open Season Noobs You arn't paying 10 for stealing a creature, you are paying 7 then paying three every turn for a creature stealin' machine.

Didn't this guy star as the villian in Star Trek: Nemesis?
Looks EXACTLY the same.

This card is aweosme. You get to distroy any creature for just BBB and get a Vampire equal to the ditroyed creatures P/T. This is a deadly card.

Kalitas gets a good 3.5 out of me especially if you can get him out early
although I have a hard time understanding his ability flavor especially when it comes to other black creatures i.e. turning zombies/skeletons/spirits into vampires
yes people, Kalitas turns "BRAAAAAAAINSSSSS!!" into "I vant to suck yer vlood!!"

A lot more valuable against Eldrazi creatures, and with standard slowing down.

I'd be interested to see how this would pan out in limited. On the one hand, it's a huge win condition which will give you total board dominance given how little spot removal there is, but on the other its a turn 7 drop at best unless you ramp with green, and by that stage the game may be reaching its end already.

Throw down Blade of the Bloodchief on this guy and he gets +2/+2 everytime he uses his ability. So not only is he getting massive very fast, you also get a token equal to whatever you killed. I dont know about anyone else but i think its a win/win right there lol
