Both the top two abilities look very low powered. "Tap target permanent" isn't very useful at sorcery speed. I note that both Ajani Vengeant and Tamiyo, the Moon Sage have gone for the "it doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step" approach. That's the kind of +1 I might expect to only see on a two- or three-mana walker. The -2 is kinda interesting: at sorcery speed it's somewhat similar to "Tap target permanent" in that it neutralises a blocker for a turn. Obviously it can be used on your own ETB creatures too; that mode was most iconically used on Venser, the Sojourner - but for him it was +2!
The flavour intrigues me somewhat. The name sounds like an allusion to Sorin Markov, but the mechanics seem to suggest a very white weenie aggressive strategy, and it's a little hard to imagine a vampire leading that kind of strategy...
Changed the +1 to +2 so it's weak but charges up quickly and the -2 to -1 so its a bit more useful.

but wanted his cost to "match up" with the two classic inspirations for his ultimate Wrath of God (actual cost)and Armageddon (same cmc).
Considered having him a
Name had nothing to do with Sorin, Its a bit of a preview for one of my other sets that I am working on offline that is heavily influenced by russian/baltic folklore.
