I hope it raises the chance, I mean we obviously go down on the chance of hitting the mythic that we want
So it's only fair that we get a Better chance 😂

The Gitrog Monster
3BG
Legendary Creature - Frog Horror
Deathtouch

At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice The Gitrog Monster unless you sacrifice a land.

You may play an additional land on each of your turns.

Whenever one or more land cards are put into your graveyard from anywhere, draw a card.
Illus. Jason Kang   6/6


Could it be? A modern playable 5 drop?
Dodges everything but path, and you play it with fetches, tec edge, and ghost quarter?
It may even see standard play. This set has a lot of "return land from graveyard to hand" most likely setting up standard to make this thing viable.
*Edit* this could be good with some of the landfall elementals too. It allows you to get twice, even 4 times the landfall triggers if you play something like Evolving Wilds

Forgot creation 3U

3/3 creature
Skulk
At the begining of your upkeep you may discard your hand then draw that many cards.


Looks like it would be great for madness decks.
Add harness the storm to fling burn/kill spells at your enemy like crazy. In U/R or U/B/R

Also might be helpfull to set up delirum but delirum seems easy to pull off if you have a balanced deck with many card types.

What's with all these tentacles and extra eyes and crap on some of these cards?

seasons past seems very abusable in U/G.
(4GG, sorcery, return any number of cards with different CMC to hand, put SP at the bottom of your library).

Let's choose  Mystical Tutor as 1-drop, or  Ethereal Usher as 6-drop....

New discard outlet and potential wincon for grixis madness.

Creeping Dread
3B
Enchantment
At the beginning of your upkeep, each player discards a card. Each opponent who discarded a card that shares a type with the card you discarded loses 3 life. (Players reveal the discarded cards simultaneously.)

U/G decks are probably full up on that slot with Praetor's Counsel. But you never know. I like the card, anyway.

Counsel is only one-shot, though. Since seasons past never hits the yard, it could be very hard to deal with. (It would have to be countered or discarded to even hit the yard).

It's often better for cards to go to the graveyard than to the bottom of the deck. The graveyard is more often than not more accessible than the deck.

Also, even though it is a one-shot, Praetor's Counsel usually generates so much card advantage that you'll most likely win a game in which it resolves.
