This card

5 mana for a 4/4 with a potential combo pieces attached to it

There were also these cards which is in the core set.

Wat

a continuous drain effect, you'll need to pay of course but still... whoho

oh yes

A flying 2/2 which drains 1 life and the opponent loses 1 life.

I Really like drain effects, they are dirty as hell and when you least expect the effect then it already has drained 8 life and gained you 8 life.

I've built a ally trigger deck with Kalastria Healer which focuses on the same principles, play allies such as Bojuka Brigand, Makindi Shieldmate and Ondu Cleric which gets triggers.

Ally Drain

what do you guys think? am i crazy or just bloodthirsty for this creature :3 ?

Well, you lack the second combo piece of the puzzle.

The 1 mana dude is not worth the investment at all, while the combo piece is 5 mana 4/4 that is almost vanilla. Even if the other piece of the puzzle existed, it would too expensive mana-wise to play.

Actually, it's a creature version of Sanguine Bond in the Sanguine Bond + Exquisite Blood combo, so there's redundancy there for EDH! With the two out, any life drain effect is infinite.
