I haven't brushed up on the rules lately, but is this kind of wording official?
It's a card that potentially generates both -1/-1 and +1/+1. While there are rules covering this, it's also is a source of confusion. Wizards doesn't like mixing +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters in a SET for this reason, much less on a single card.
I;d say around 5. It takes a while to be a serious threat and the return to graveayard ability is unlikely to happen because it will end up being blocked and killed in combat when it has 2 toughness. And it's also possible that it will take a mass of your other creatures if it does go through.
What happens if it's 0 toughness and you have no other creatures?
While I agree on the premise, having a max of 4 snow lands makes any snow based cards nearly impossible to play , particularly in limited. For example, Ice Age becomes unplayable.
If something like this were done, there has to be an accompanying decrease in snow spells, to the point that it can be no longer one of the main themese in a set.
call the primeival -- it doesn't do anything on it's own, and the thing it calls upon a card that's in another set. This is playable in... legacy? Vintage?
Even assuming the card is reprinted, you still have a card that incredibly parasitic. Cards that named other cards usually did something else, so that it wasn't a dead card if the other card wasn't around.
If you're dead set on having a card that specifically tutors others, give it some other ability so that a basic land isn't better in limited.
Do competitive players (not EDH crowd) generally go limited, standard, modern, legacy, and then vintage?
No. People who play legacy are usually those who started playing years ago. Either they have cards from that era, or are now working and so can afford the cards. It's usually standard->limited, and stops there.
Sanctioned competitive Vintage is almost non-existent.
What prompts a modern player to eventually trade their modern staples for legacy staples?
Lots of reason, but I'd proimarily ay it's because legacy card prices are far more stable than modern card prices.
Yours is similar to nighthawk, but with the option to get it out earlier. No, it's not a trade-off. The option to come out earlier is a straight up upgrade from nighthawk.

What happens in a tie, which is always the case in 2 players? (or multiplayer with only 2 players left)
Lengendary Creature -- Cat
Untouchable (whenever Kitty, the Unfriendly is touched, it deals 1 damage to that player).
3/3
"There aren't fun" is the reason why specific land and color hosers have been largely removed.

Severely undercsted. If BB is harder than BG, GG is much easier.

I'd also argue that BB is harder to cast than BG.
