From the Usurp the Shadow Throne release notes

Sinspeaker Gloomblade has a play-static ability that allows its owner to play it from their banished zone.
Sinspeaker Gloomblade has a static ability that checks if it was played from its controller’s banished zone. If it was, it gets an on-attack trigger. When this on-attack trigger resolves, it generates an optional effect: you may choose to search your deck for an aura with Runechant in its name, put it into the arena, then shuffle.
When resolving Sinspeaker Gloomblades gained on-attack trigger, If you decline to, or cannot search your deck, you will not shuffle your deck.
When resolving Sinspeaker Gloomblades gained on-attack trigger, if you search your deck and fail to find an aura with Runechant in its name, you will still shuffle your deck.
Putting a card into the arena is not the same as playing it.

Keyword notes

Usurp - As an additional cost to play this, destroy a Runechant if able. If you do, this gets +2{p}.

Usurp is a static ability keyword.
Usurp adds an additional cost to cards. You must destroy a card named Runechant, or a card that counts as a Runechant if able. If you destroy a Runechant in this way, the card gets +2. Any Runechant that is public and in the arena can be destroyed as part of paying this cost, regardless of controller.
A Runechant token that is destroyed to pay a usurp cost will not trigger when the card is played: it no longer exists by the time its “when you play an attack action card” trigger would occur.
A Runechant that is destroyed to pay a usurp cost is considered to have been usurped when that card is played and put on the stack. This can trigger effects that look for when a card “usurps this”.
If there are no Runechants, you can still play the card with the usurp additional cost but you won’t get any additional effects as the usurp cost was not paid.
