*** gross picture. nothing against franz vohwinkel - he's a great artist, but I just don't like the Phyrexian flavour...

bit of a letdown, but has some small bit of utility, it is a sac outlet for your artifacts, although there have been better ones, shame you have to pay mana for it though. original mirrodin had many good sac outlets, far better than this, however in new phyrexia life will be a very precious resource for phyrexian mana, I think phyrexian mana is a good idea as it gives you a use for life as a resource when your getting the hell poisoned out of you.

High Market for artifacts? Seems pretty good.

Well, it's good to sac your stuff in response to an opponent trying to steal it or if you want something in your graveyard for some reason. As garabor says though: why does it cost mana to activate? That makes it so much worse. The no-mana cost of diamond valley for example is a reason why it's so good.
For lifegain purposes this card sucks though, as it does if you just add it randomly to decks.
1/5

Like AnTzero said, Spine of Ish Sah and the Wellspring duo both combo well with this card. So do Bonehoard and Slag Fiend, for that matter, given that each of them love having artifact/artifact creature cards in the graveyard. Act of Agression becomes targeted artifact creature sacrificing, which is a bit of a stretch, but workable. Perilous Myr, Necropede, and Core Prowler all have triggers for leaving the battlefield, so having the option to trigger those on command is welcome. Plus, there's probably combo potential with Dross Scorpion.
I wouldn't mind getting this card at all. Besides, it's cool.

Phyrexia's Core, Slag Fiend, Ichor Wellspring, Mycosynth Wellspring, Spine of Ish Sah, Geosurge (you can use it to cast the Spine on your 4th turn)... You get where I'm heading?

This is very good in a grand architect deck that abuses spine of ish sah.
Its just a shame it costs a mana to activate, I mean would it have killed them to have made the activation similar to high market?
