Very good card, but it's sad her +1/+1 only goes off with Humans. There are not very many red or black humans worth running, ESPECIALLY in Limited. Very sad. Maybe you can make a White/Black deck with enough dual lands to get her in?
Even without humans, trading a small creature to keep her going is not a bad deal at all. Especially if you have Flayer of the Hatebound out and some Undying zambies just begging to be burned and revived for the Hatebound's effect.

This card is tricky. 4/1 hasted flying vampire is not really that spectacular as a mythic rare, but it's ability to become indestructible is potent. Even if you ignore the human component of the ability, you can throw some black/red token power and feed her with, let's say, zombies and get annoying flying power that's hard to deal with. Splashing white for human tokens seem to be ineffective for aggro vampires.
If you're fighting human decks, you can always steal their humans with Traitorous Blood or Olivia Voldaren and then feed this lady. It may be inefficient little bit, but may work.
BTW awesome artwork. Maybe one of best looking vampire in Magic universe.

Run with Reckless Waif, maybe? A 3/2 onedrop if she flips, and if your opponent doesn't let that happen you can sac her to this and only lose the one mana.

I'm amused at some of the comments saying that WRB decks featuring Miss Tickles here and humans to feed to her would never be a thing, given I've been playing The Aristocrats all season...

I just pulled this card out of a booster. I can definitely see a good potential for this card. My only wish was that she was a Legendary. I would have loved to run her as a commander. As others have stated, Thatcher Revolt would combo nicely with this card. I do love the artwork though, and the flavor text is nice too. I'm sure I'll find a home for her easily enough. Not to mention that Black, has it's own humans to exploit. But adding white to the mix would probably work out better. Especially if I start using some of my Boros Legion cards, plenty of humans in Ravnica, lol.

Really nice artwork. Nice to see some more uncontrollable vampires that Sorin needs to put in place. Strong threat since its flying especially in limited. I wont complain about it being mythic since it is cheap and is easily supported in B/R now. Though the human part is lost unless you using Olivia against a human deck. i was hoping to see some actually proper Vampires that follow Sorin's ideals but I guess thats left for when the archangel is freed joins Sorin and his loyal vampires come out of the woodwork.

Won me many games at the prerelease, even with very few humans in the deck.

Can be quite cool with Thatcher Revolt, though hard to play in the same turn...

Lord_of_Tresserhorn is right. Let loose a Thatcher Revolt and have your Aristocrat "feed" on one before combat is dealt. Afterwards, if anyone's survived to see the 2nd phase, have her finish off the rest. Bonus points if you have a Blood Artist present to paint how it all went down.
