Pain as a theme?
Tybalt 2.0 confirmed.

So, although the hype train is fully in motion for this one, surely it will see some play in Esper Agro or WB humans. The problem however remains - if there is a 3/3 out there, what the hell do you do with this retarded 2/2?
A quick seach through magiccards.info came up with the following cards for "tap" in standard (other than the springleaf drum):-
Blue base - Ral Zarek, hidden strings (obviously); and
White base - Ephara's Warden and Devout invocation (7 mana sorcery lawl).
It surely isnt worth doubling down to add another card to get value from your one card. It could run in WB humans replacing precinct captain I suppose? Precinct captain has the same sort of drawbacks, blanked and then essentially useless.
What about some type of black suicide agro deck with tormented hero, pack rat, this, some removal, some pumps (are there even any good black pumps?)

Alright first off, if anybody who said that Kiora wasn't strong enough because she dies so easily to burn due to her low starting loyalty says they like this card, I reserve the right to punch you through the internet.
Second off, if the Inspired mechanic is really "whenever this becomes untapped", I reserve the right to punch Magic's R&D through the internet.
For actual card analysis though, I'm fairly interested in testing this out in a Junk Aggro build. Treating this guy like a tempo card instead of a card engine might provide dividends that otherwise wouldn't pay off. Turn 2 this turn 3
Unflinching Courage seems like a nightmare for your opponent to deal with.

To slow as black wants its card draw faster. Read the Bones digs more for known life loss. Underworld connections is harder to destroy, controled life loss, and contributes to devotion more. This is supper aggro deck material. I call it Blood Scriviner 2.0. Necromancer Deck material? Just not seeing it in teir one decks.

The return of Satanic Sligh?
The only problem with this card? Pack Rat also costs 2 mana.

But this card and the rat should be best friends, infinite cheap cards to discard

Pack Rat makes his own friends.

OP forgot
Witches' Eye in the list of enablers. Plus it looks like they'll be printing a few Inspire enablers in the set, like they did for Heroic.

The nicest thing I have to say about this card is that it isn't the worst
So far it is my favorite card spoiled so far. I also don't take milk with my cereal.
