Actually, I have the strong feeling that this wouldn't work. Since only one
Reality Mirror can be played during a game, and "once each combat, Satyr may
use the ability of that card as if that card had been played from your hand."
So b/c of the whole "played" clause, I would guess that the Satyr would only be
able to use the Mirror once (if it hasn't been used already). I could be
completely off base though. LSJ?

I agree, but isn't it also played when it's put on the Satyr? Or is there a
difference between "put into play" and "played"?

In this case, there's a difference.
There is usually no difference, since a card that is "put into play" is normally
"put into play" by being played. But some cards move other cards into (and out
of) play without actually "playing" the affected card.

You are on base.

I think it would not work: Reality mirror can only be played *by* a Malkavian antitribu vampire...

To play in combat, that's true. By the card text of Shadow Court Satyr, you may place any combat
card on top of him as you put him into play. If you had to observe the same requirements for
this act as you did to play that combat card for him in combat normally, it would be impossible
to place any cards requiring a discipline on him, either - since his card text does not allow him
to do that. (However, the combo doesn't work well for another reason, apparently...)

And it doesn't work for that reason, as well. You can put the clan-requiring combat card
on him, but he cannot use the ability, since card text doesn't allow for that.
