Phyrexian Unlife and soul conduit, green white with enough mana ramp to play conduit and use it in one turn. Just for casual play of coarse but its a interesting combo enough to have fun with. Weakness is infect that I can see. Any thoughts?
Phyrexian Unlife and Soul Conduit are one of many interesting and endearing combinations I've seen. If you are worried about infect, and are playing GW anyway, why not take a peak from the new article and use Melira, Sylvok Outcast as a sideboard?
^ You are talking about Near-death experience and that wincon is not too good. There is a deck called project X you should search it. It is an old deck that people are trying to bring back into standard.
the main problem I see with this combo, is that it's very slow and easy to play around. soul conduit takes 12 mana to play and use on the same turn.
so you play phyrexian unlife and let your opponent start wittiling your life away. If your opponent gets you down low enough, they can just destroy/bounce the enchantment and win. Or if you get below 0 you have to play soul conduit then wait until your next turn to use it. This gives your opponent tons of time to respond.
If soul conduit comes down before your life is 0, your opponent can just choose not to attack until they come up with an answer. If you wait to play it after, you run a high risk of your opponent simply dealing with the enchantment and winning.

Big thanks to DarkNightCavalier from heroes of the planes studios for the sig!
i played a few games with a really really quickly made version of this deck over the last couple of days, im interested to see how far we can take this, its unexpected at the very least.

Look at the card. Now back to Jace. Now back to that card, now back to Jace! Sadly, it isn't Jace, but if it stopped being a junk rare and became relevant, it could act like it's Jace. Crack some Worldwake. What do you have? You have a Jace, the card you wish this card could be like. Look again. THE CARD IS NOW A $75 BILL. Anything possible when you play Magic with Jace and not junk rares. This is probably spam.
is there a deck/topic thread on this in deck creation?

I pulled one but just can't think of anything feasible to do with it. I'm hoping to trade it away really.I've got a friend who's interested in doing the Soul Conduit combo, but we've not come up with anything else.

That wouldnt work.. according to the rules, you can have -1 -5 or -100 life in a game, if you read the phyrexian unlife text, it says "0 or less life"
