the whole point of magic is to play creatures and spells to destroy your opponents creatures and bring there life total to zero. the player that has the higher life total and has done more damage to the opposite player is considered winning. this card is a unfair card because it erases all of the work the winning player has put into getting to where they are at and gives the opponent the upper hand. in my opinion this is basically steeling a win from that player and they can do nothing to stop you. i am writing this post because a while back i was playing my white/ blue human deck against my brothers green/ red cat deck. my brothers life total was 1 and mine was 29. i had 5 creatures on the battlefield, all of them pumped up with innistrad human eqiupments and 1 was a 5/5 unblockable. all of them were tapped except for my haunted gardian (defender). i would have won however my brother, having played soul conduit a turn back, switched are life totals and attacked me with his two saberto... (see all)

Cool card but I have a major Vorthos issue with it. The soul conduit is the whole reason Memnarch made Mirrodin the way it is: he wanted to steal a planeswalker spark from one of the sentient creatures he abducted and transplanted there. Needless to say it did not end up working, doing this instead. So naturally the device that shaped two sets has some flavor text from a random guy saying "Phyrexian values, LOL" Pity, so much potential.

1 of 2 cards this set has come out with that breaks that 'unusable' Carnival of Souls. This and Phyrexian Unlife, and both of those cards have synergy as well.
My Enduring Renewal/Children of Korlis/Edgewalker combo deck is going to be getting an overhaul.

I love how this looks like some kind of freaky Doctor Frankenstein style lab.

Use this when you want to cast Phyrexian Mana cards using your opponents life points. Also great for shutting down life gain decks. 4/5 for support and utility.

I love this card with Channel - use an elvish spirit guide, channel, soul conduit, forest and gut shot for a turn one win!

This would have been fun in our last night's 5 player highlander 'highest life' game.

Fun win with Phyrexian Unlife (as has been mentioned) and Immolating Souleater.
It's always fun to have machines that reward incompetence.
Also, the foil version looks awesome.
