Not a bad stat monster 2-drop, but not sure how this compares to white's suite of decent 2-drops, notwithstanding the great adversary in white this set as well!
Good stats and graveyard hate is a fine baseline. I doubt the Hexproof will be that useful when you have to have 2 other targets to be able to activate the ability. The Unblockable on the other hand might come in handy for stalemates. I think it might be a solid addition to larger cubes and it certainly plays into both the hate and the wide aspects of white weenie.
I don't like it. GY exile is irrelevant in the majority of games, and I think Coven will be harder to have active than people are giving in credit for. I like all my current W 2's better than this.

I'm starting to think thats not really the case with all the escape, flashback, eternalize, reanimator, storm floating around.
What do you all think about this vs Remorseful Cleric?
I'm actually thinking of playing both right now given the number of graveyard archetypes these days.

Remorseful cleric is both a better aggro creature and a better GY hoser IMO. Sure this is better when it can freely attack, but unless you have coven it can't, and you can't sac it in response to a removal spell nor at instant speed.
3/2 for 2 in white. With upside on etb and attacks. With potential for good evasion.

I like Cleric more due to its evasion / it better being a better hate bear.
