Animus of Predation
Creature — Avatar
Draft Animus of Predation face up.
As you draft a card, you may remove it from the draft face up. (Those cards aren't in your card pool.)
If you removed a creature card with flying from the draft with cards named Animus of Predation, Animus of Predation has flying. The same is ture for first strike, double strike, deathtouch, haste, hexproof, indestructible, lifelink, menace, reach, and vigilance.
Kogarashi on Hangarback Walker/General LTB Question

No. When a card references its own name, it's referring to itself, not to other cards with the same name. Your first Hangarback Walker won't care that the token copy died, only the token copy will (and won't make any thopters due to having no counters).
Exceptions will be clear when they refer to any card with that name and not just that specific instance. Accumulated Knowledge, for instance, actually states that it counts "cards named Accumulated Knowledge" in all graveyards for its effect. "Draft matters" cards from the two Conspiracy sets may also care about any card with a given name, such as Animus of Predation, but again they specify. Tokens created by Deathpact Angel will get any Deathpact Angel out of the graveyard, not just the one that made them. All of these examples actually have the text "card(s) named" in them.
Hangarback Walker would have to read "When a creature named Hangarback Walker dies" for the effect you want to work.

Gatherer search "The same is true" comes up with, along with what's been mentioned and some less-relevant stuff, Animus of Predation (not really helpful), Escaped Shapeshifter (on a small scale), and Majestic Myriarch. For loads of keywords, there's Vampire Nighthawk, Aerial Responder, Atraxa, Praetors' Voice, and Sphinx of the Steel Wind off the top of my head.
Take care to match up which abilities are granted by which cards. Cairn Wanderer, Concerted Effort, and Odric, Lunarch Marshal all have different ability lists.
JerichoDarkstar on Most Fun Set To Draft?

If you're going for pure fun value, the Conspiracy sets are amazingly good. They were made for the specific intention to draft with them, and there are some great cards that really show that like Animus of Predation. When I played that draft, he had Flying, First Strike, Deathtouch, and Lifelink.
But, if you're wanting to draft AND get cards to play in Standard, I have personally had the most fun out of Aether Revolt and Kaladesh. You have a chance to pull an Invention Masterpiece, and the commons/ uncommons in that set are bonkers good.

I had a sick G/R deck with Burgeoning, Weight Advantage, and 3 copies of Natural Unity. I got passed a Beast Within, and like 3 or 4 Fiery Fall, people seriously underestimate that card. I also got 2 Animus of Predation, but all the only decent ability I ended up finding for it was flying.
Unfortunately I got teamed up on and was out of the game pretty quickly...oh well *shrug*
