This card is pure tempo.  On fifth turn, you get a free whack at them with one of their own dead creatures, then a 3/2 flier picks up where it left off.  Three power flying can be hard to stop, just like Shriekmaw's 3/2 fear body gets through frequently.  And depending on what you've gotten into your opponent's graveyard, this can be a surprise shot for 4 or more damage that your opponent wasn't prepared to block.

Constructed- 3
Casual- 3.5
Limited- 3.75

Goryo's Vengeance reprint? For your opponent's graveyard only, but any creature? With a 3/2 flier of your own attached? And the flier has persist? Sign me up. If U/B Mannequin makes a comeback in Standard, chances are it will owe a lot to this card. And it's even good in limited.
 
Constructed: 3/5
Casual: 4/5
Limited: 3/5
