Love the flavor text on these. Not a bad card, most of the 4-5cmc sorcery yard to battlefield spells have some sort of upside, but I believe this is the first that grants haste.

Ohh, this design is a nice marriage of flavor and mechanics. Granting haste makes sense, especially when you consider that it's not only in black, but it's also primary in red (Rakdos) and secondary in green (Golgari).
The problem with defining this format by what is "fun" is that everyone seems to define fun as what they don't lose to. If you keep losing to easily answered cards, that means you should improve your deck. If you don't want to improve your deck, then you should come to peace with the idea that you are going to lose because you chose to not interact with better strategies.
Flavorwise, I'm disappointed. The Rakdos don't really care about reanimating things anywhere as much as the Golgari do. If anything, they're at opposite extremes: Rakdos is "live every day as if it's your last" and Golgari is "death is only the beginning".

Boros and Gruul. Bond of Discipline has Orzhov and Azorius.
Zombify for one more mana to give haste. Not bad at all.
