The abilities are all in color pie, but that's ignoring the fact this is a [potentially] esper merfolk. Where they have ALWAYS been blue, and just recently green. Seems like a giant thing to break the creature type, for what reason??
Judge of Currents, Hollowsage etc. What is this breaking again?
Mostly this design seems lazy. Just a bunch of abilities thrown on it, waiting what sticks. Is that what mythic rare is about? Activated lifelink?
The last ability is rather efficient, but also makes you wonder why that one over the middle ability - which is rather an outsider.
The first ability is weird both because it misses the "You may" and because it does double-duty and seems to "cheat" the other abilities. It's also just full of potential to be annoyingly oppressive.
It seems like you tried to make three activated abilities and failed at that.
... there are white and black merfolk....
