So you can activate both of the other two? That's not a critism just making sure.

Card seems... difficult to judge. Your opponent will obviously make their decision given the situation, but they're quite likely to go for either the draw or discard knowing you'll get the other and just readdress the balance, plus you'll get a free graveyard summon (the choice might not even be their's to make if your hand is empty). They'd never pick the summon themselves given that it would leave them with a -1(-2? significant card advantage) plus with it being your turn the monster is probably going to be steamrolled unless they somehow set themself up for Urgent Tuning or something. Which they won't.

So for that reason I don't think giving your opponent first choice is enough to quite balance this, as its a poisoned choice whatever.

Maybe if it was a trap card?

Actually that is what makes it a "Unequal Contract" to begin with...XD

It really depends, and it seems like in most situations it will be a 2 for 2. They will get a draw, and you will loose this card, and then you will get a draw and a summon. The problem is, that it can make certain OTKs even better. I would change it a tad bit. You should make it a trap, and make the discard effect random. That way, it cannot be used for FTKs and not in Appropriate Exodia either.

This really is unequal. Your opponent is screwed any way you look at it. "Unequal"...more like "Unfair".

They should make this a real card. I'd like to see how it could be played.
