If Vamps make a comeback after post rotation, it will be on the back of this girl.
I just saw that Mythic Rare Vampire from M12, so yes, they will be making a comeback.

That's awesome. Vampires aka souless creatures with a super unhuman power, monsterous strength & ETERNAL life. This powerhouse doesn't have eternal life persay, but his triggered ability exemplifies it. Awesome way to bring a huge part of the meaning of the word vampire to the castor of this card. Vamp decks across the planes will find a way to Inc this into their arsenal indefinitely. As will I!

Funny that this vampire is worst in a vampire deck. After all, vampire decks are normally aggro-decks. They care about killing the opponent as fast as possible. They do not care about how much life they have. So in vampire decks, this is basically a 3/3 flyer for 4, which is acceptable but not good.
In multiplayer games though this card is definately good. Though, ultimately, I'd probably play Dross Harvester instead. After all, the Harvester costs less mana, much harder to kill (protection from white and higher toughness), deals more damage, and also generates life when your own creatures (including it itself) die. If you have few creatures in your deck, this vampire might generate more life, but if you run a deck with many creatures, the Harvester is, in my opinion, superior.

Why is the oracle text so retarded? "whenever a creature an opponent control dies"? DIES? Really? I thought WotC had established a clear nomenclature with "when a creature is put into the graveyard from the battlefield" and now the oracle text is using words like "dies". WotF, WotC.

This lovely lady tacks a healing salve onto a doomblade. and tacks 6 life onto a hymn to tourach. Now maybe thats not the point of many black decks. But it certainly couldnt hurt.

This complements the black color so well, especially given how suicidal black can be in terms of life loss.

Question: How does this card trigger with 'destroy all creatuer' effects. such as the day of judgement or black sun zenith (with more than 2 payed for the X)
do you get life for all your opponents creatuers or none if the sangromancer dies as well?
I still think Abyssal Persecutor is a better 4 drop than the sangromancer. especially with 'Go for the Throat' to get rid of it.

I get that it's a 3/3 flyer for 4 and all, and has a pair of decent abilities besides...but you know what? I STILL don't think finding 3 of them in a fat pack is acceptable.
Which I did.
Kinda infuriating.

@DacenOctavio It seems like people keep misreading Bloodchief Ascension. That card wants a card that will activate it. It wants anything that can deal an opponent at least 2 damage as quickly as possible. Vampire Lacerator, Lightning Bolt, Blightning, and Staggershock are such cards. After it's activated, you want a Traumatize. GG. This card compounds upon the loss from Bloodchief by gaining you life, but doesn't activate or trigger it. I still love this card, though. Very classy design.
