I know multiplayer viable wordings can be in any set e. g. Syphon Soul, but the connection between life loss and life gain is quite grokkable.

This feels like a more contrived wording to be multiplayer viable by creating potentially multiple tokens. Is this trying to advertise itself for multiplayer like the sets Syphon Flesh gets printed in?

The primary reason it's multiplayer friendly is that (most of?) the cards made here are based on the concept of 'ideal' set where every card has some purpose somewhere outside of limited. So the multiplayer angle/bonus is this card's take on that.

I don't feel this wording is especially contrived. Not much more so than Syphon Mind for example, though I guess discard-draw share a connection similar to the life loss/gain you mention.

Hmm, it's a minor issue, but not change warranting IMO.
