Loyalty deals the ATK power of the Samurai in direct, unblockable damage to the opponent when Samurai dies, unless the ATK power is negative (then it does nothing). SERIES:

[Master Katie]

why would you go arouynd killing high ATK creatures??? Oh, maybe for a time death duo.

[Jenkar]

It's been antimattered?
Still, pretty bad Imo (ability)

[Xenocidius]

The two abilities are meant to synergise.

New cards may come out that put negative effects on your creatures, and this would become more useful.

Mostly, it can counter stalls involving Dimensional Shield, Wings, Sundial, etc. Plus, it gives a midrange attacker.

The passive skill is the "main" one: resistance to CC. The active one is just a bonus.

Plus, it just fits thematically. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seppuku (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seppuku)

Loyalty would work nicely with LS. ^_^

Interesting. Could be very strategic, the "direct damage" Loyalty skill is kind of odd though. Why would a negative attack deal 0 damage and not negative damage (healing)?

Why would a Samurai want to heal the enemy of its master? Hardly loyal.
