Another test for the post-apocalyptoc world. Right now sounds artifact-flavor exclusive, but I'd be willing to put it onto enchantments as well.
I assume it has the sac for mana ability. I'm using this kind of ability in my "Zion" set: Gilded Guardian. The first time I saw it featured was in this MTGSalvation thread by foo_intherain. Sorcery speed is probably recommended. To me, seems like way too small of a cost - especially at instant speed.
Yeah, I got lazy and didn't want to copy look up and copy the exact wording of the Treasure token. Sorcery speed is probably a good idea. seems like too high of a cost when combined with discard for a one-use mana boost, but then I'd actually have to playtest it.
It's worth adding that this is considered an alternative for Recycle, the mechanic on (((Amethyst of Foresight))), since they were designed with the same flavor and similar mechanical results in mind. Recycle has the problem of getting the card into the graveyard by normal means (I was planning to use recycle on creatures though, which would be easier), while Scrap can be done from hand, with the flavor feeling similar enough. On the other hand, if I use Salvage (Impromptu Journey), Recycle plays well with Salvage. Of course Salvage's repeatability may be a problem.
