Can this work as Esper removal?

I made the first card wanting something to put on my profile page. It is a boardwipe with a Threshold-like ability, but I am unsure if it fits the color scheme. I like the possibility for targeted removal, but am also unsure on the casting cost, as 8-mana is quite a lot for any format.
The second card is what I would want to run as a commander. He has toolbox-esque effects that have a varied degree of power. The second ability may be too much, as a repeatable 
Stifle might be OP. The card draw I am on the fence about.
I would like to hear people's views on these cards, and if either is worthy enough to feature on my profile?

Crisis costs too much for what it does. How about:
: Exile 5 target nonland permanents. Put three time counters on each of them. If they don't have suspend, they gain suspend.

Why the hybrid mana on Crisis? What you're trying to say with those symbols is "This is an Esper card, and you must use one of each color mana to play it." No one will get to enough mana to play Crisis without having the correct colors. Should just be 
to simplify.

I see the merit to the hybrid color there. It isn't just to be one of each color. With those you could cast it as long as you had two of those colors. That being said, Crisis needs a lot of rewording for it to make any sense. Are you wanting "exile all permanents and they gain suspend 3, Threshold- you may instead exile 5 permanents and they gain suspend 5"? I am not super keen on that. I would just have one of those abilities on the card personally. Also, your legend does a much too much. I would get rid of your counter ability and make the black portion cost 2 more colorless.

I think the commander is way to OP. The card draw ability should be 
Pay 4 and the Stifle ability should be . Other than that, he seems good.

I really like Kryzis as a commander, though the costs for his black and blue abilities are way too cheap - try upping them by 2 and 1, respectively.
As for Crisis, "remove from the game" is now "exile," and change the wording of the second part to "If you have less life than an opponent, instead exile five target permanents. Put five time counters on each of them. If they don't have suspend, they gain suspend."
