Whoa. Way too many things on one card!

And.. can I use those first two abilities together to turn this into an expensive way to kill a creature?

Yes, you can, like you could with Grab the Reins, for much the same effect. I agree that sadly this is too wordy, compared to the original Incendiary Command cycle. You can save two words because "sacrifice a creature" doesn't need "you control" after it, but it's still got way too many words.
