Eldricht rites and blood in the watering can intrest me. many of the other design's feel like artifacts (abundant use of counters)

Blood in the watering can seems interesting. The thought of turning my fetchlands into raise deads seems sweet.
However, since painlands exist, I can't see that card being less than 5 mana.
I thought the Mummy card was sweet, but then I re-read it. It's less Sulfuric Vortex, more Eternity Vessel

Consuming Contract
At the beginning of your upkeep, choose one—You draw two cards and lose 2 life; or destroy target creature; or __________*; or you lose the game. You can't choose the same mode twice.
*This ability originally read "Cast a spell without paying its mana cost." That was judged to be too powerful compared to the others. If this design wins, we'll have a further vote to decide
what ability will go in this blank space.
