Yet another card I was somehow unaware of existing. Soul Net for artifacts.
I suppose this might have been useful-ish when Antiquities came out, and maybe during Mirrodin/etc., but really it's about as useful as Soul Net, Crystal Rod, etc.: another lucky charm, barely worth the mana necessary to cast it. Wouldn't mind throwing one in a deck though, just to make people look at it and go, "really? REALLY?"
It's interesting that the oracle text for this card brings it in line with Soul Net's later printings, but does not actually match up with what the card says on it. As printed it looks like you'd just pay 1 colorless mana and then for the rest of the turn you gain a life when one of your artifacts is destroyed. That seems way cooler.
