Isn't this card contradicting itself?
It says you put the top card of your library into the exile pile. If its a land, you put it onto the battlefield. Otherwise, play it without paying its mana cost.
How can you play any other card but a land if your exiling it?

I can't remember the combo my friend pulled off, but in EDH a friend of mine locked another of my friends out of drawing or playing any nonland cards for about 10 or so turns I think. It was quite amusing.

Rune-Scarred Demon - tutor so you can have that one card you really need. Sphinx of Uthuun - put some cards in your hand. Phyrexian Ingester bye bye wormcoil. Creeping Renaissance to further restock your hand. Throw in some Primeval Titans to remove land from your deck. Treasure Mages to tutor the machine, other high cmc artifacts like Contagion Engine for when you topdeck Treasure Mage.
Fun in standard casual. Conbine with permission. Counter one spell a turn.

It's a phyrexianized Gate to the Aether with no flavor.
Gah, I hate Phyrexia...

Uh, this forces you to place a land, every round. Ankh Of Mishra, Zo-Zu The Punisher.

Other than Nix on stix I am not sure how to break this in any meaningful way. Even that is an abuse of Isochron Scepter, not this. You could do better with a Rule of Law and Counterspell on a stick anyway.
Overall a mediocre card, made for Johnny it looks like, but there are cards that do the same in a more interesting way. I sadly pulled a play set of these.

We once had a cube game with this in play, together with March of the Machines and Grip of Chaos , i had made a copy of it with Phyrexian Metamorph, fun times, then one of my friends hit omen machine with a kicked Rite of Replication, while he had Doubling Season, after that everything was just fucked up. Fun times, fun times :P
