B/R Vampires are keeping getting quite silly with every spoiler
Seriouslly all the good vampires are in innistrad instead of Zendikar(ignoring Drana and Kalitas)
Well it would be rather silly if BFZ overshadowed SOI with Vampires.

MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
Well this one's for all you B/W aristocrats fans. This will probably go well with the Zendikar lifesteal vampires but I'm not really keen on this in R/B aggro

Don't love the mana cost attached to the sac ability, but vampire tribal sure looks like a thing now.
If you didn't have a mana cost attached to the mana cost, this card would be busted as all hell. It would be a Nantuko Anthem

Wow, that lifelink really pushes this card over the top. Looking forward to the fodder cards like Doomed Traveler that we'll be getting in this set to realize this guy's potential.
That sac ability is sweet, but the lifelink on top of it makes this a real treat. And an uncommon, too? SOI is looking to have an exciting limited format already, if the bulk of the set can live up to the themes already previewed.
There are probably going to be two viable Vampire decks to meet two different playstyles. The All out b/r vampire madness deck which just poops out intrinsic card value and aggression, or the Midrange, b/w vampire ally deck which can win an attrition game assuming the new Sorin is even playable. this card fits into both decks quite well.

Combat math with this card is going to be a gigantic pain in the ass. If your opponent swings with 4 vampires, and he has 2 mana up. that can be a huge swing.

Glad that it can be any kind of creature, not just like a human or something I always think it is strange to see just race subtypes now, like 'vampire' or 'human.' I just get so use to seeing classes too now. Zombies are the exception, and maybe goblins, though I would still rather see goblin berserker or warrior or something

The true mind can weather all the lies and illusions without being lost. The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed. Since beginning-less time, darkness thrives in the void but always yields to purifying light.
I invision a future where one is not mighty when he can silence a crowd with brutality,
but when he leaves them speechless with wisdom.

Avacyn can't flip multiple times, just once.
That's a pretty nice uncommon!
You won't get multiple flips under the new rules.

Each.
Damn. With lifelink on a 1cmc body? Last time we saw that is Serra Ascendant.
I was wanting to run U/W control post rotation but Vampires seem too fun.

Fixed that for you. Not that it's bad or anything (I think it's quite a good tribal creature), but let's not get ahead of ourselves.
