Razaketh's Rite

A tutor with a release valve. Black has always paid to fetch any card it wants: Demonic Tutor set the rate at two mana, and the effects since have covered the same search with steeper costs, lost life, or narrower selection. Five mana is steep enough that this would be a marginal tutor if the search were all it did, but the design is not really pricing the fetch at five: it is pricing two cards in one. The cycling clause for a single black mana rewrites the card's entire risk profile. A dead tutor is the worst thing a singleton deck can draw in the wrong matchup, and most fetch effects give you no way out; this one lets you pay one mana to trade the hunt for a fresh card whenever the five is no longer worth it. That flexibility runs both directions: the cheap cycling cost feeds graveyard and discard payoffs, so a card built to find a specific answer doubles as an enabler on the turns you would rather not find anything. The result is a tutor you can run without the usual penalty for drawing it early, late, or against the wrong opponent, because the floor is never a dead card: it is a one-mana cantrip.
