As a jund player, I mourned the loss of bloodrbraid elf, even though it was a good decision to save the format. Anyways, I dream of a replacement that would gave me the same satisfaction and feeling of power as when I cast an elf. I came up with this fun guy.

True, the cmc would probably be more reasonable at 4.

Firstly, kemba doesn't have an "h". Kemba, Kha Regent. (It's just going to irk me if i don't say). Secondly, part of the reason bloodbaid is so bonkers is because of the card advantage AND tempo it generates. This entering tapped is not great in the tempo area. Maybe: 1RBG: 3/2 Haste: When ~ enters the battlefield: reveal the top card of your library, lose life equal to its converted mana cost, then, if a non land card with cmc 3 or less is revealed this way, you may cast it without paying its mana cost. It's a bit wordy, but it has the same feel to elf. Also: 4 mana and 5 makes a big difference :)
