Their primary purpose is to combo with sac creatures, and until Alara rotated out, Fleshbag Marauder was one of the better combos. Now, it serves mainly to pump Mortician Beetle, though I've found that its prowess better serves Bloodthrone Vampire. On its own, though, this card is just a chump blocker with a neat effect that ruins its purpose as a chump blocker. 3.5/5

One drops are rarely ever "bad" because there are no big expectations towards them. This guy is not bad, he can block something bigger than him without going completely to waste.

This card is a beastly combo with Brimstone Volley. Either you kill a creature with power 5 and they lose life/you gain life, you can also smack them for 6 damage directly and gain a life out of it. A 1 mana creature that you can use to control morbid abilities means way more fun for you in Innistrad (casual play, but still) and any other combo your creative mind can think of. Death cultist works great in conjunction with other cards, and that's what he was meant for.

@ majinara
You spend only one mana on this card to play it. If the opponent has no creatures, this guy will hit them from the beginning of the game until he runs out of use. Then he becomes a small fling with lifelink bonus. PWNAGE for one mana. Doomblade costs 2, and you cant hurt them with it. So its not fair to compare these cards for their function. also when they're calculating kill shots they'll have to remember to include the possibility for this guy to change your life total.
Anyways. I actually run him in my Karador EDH deck because ranger of Eos finds him and then with many variations of the same combo functions I could sacrifice this guy infinitely. Using reveillark and saffi eriksdotter / karmic guide and phyrexian alter gives you infinite mana/ life/ and opponent loss of life. Plus he is like an extra mana towards casting karador. Plus he has a self included sac mechanic which is great for grave pact/ martyrs bond/ butcher of malakir.
Ive seen this guy in standard becom... (see all)

limited uses, but can be good in some situations. Great against mono-white decks.

This is the final piece of my Overkill deck. They fog my infinite number of infinite/infinite trampling oozes? Then I blow them up to make them lose infinite life, while I gain infinite life. So in closing, this is a great one of one drop.

Why you would ever run this outside of a limited deck where you just could not find enough cards is beyond me.

This card is amazing actually, if you don't know how to use it, keep it out of your deck.
