Official Rulings (7)
As you cast a spell or activate an activated ability with one or more Phyrexian mana symbols in its cost, you choose how to pay for each Phyrexian mana symbol at the same time you would choose modes or choose a value for X.
A card with Phyrexian mana symbols in its mana cost is each color that appears in that mana cost, regardless of how that cost may have been paid.
To calculate the mana value of a card with Phyrexian mana symbols in its cost, count each Phyrexian mana symbol as 1.
Phyrexian mana is not a new color. Players can't produce Phyrexian mana.
If the creature is no longer on the battlefield at the beginning of the next end step, it won't be exiled.
If the creature card has {X} in its mana cost, that X is 0. Remember that the value of X chosen for Postmortem Lunge is independent of the value of X on other cards.
If you're at 1 life or less, you can't pay 2 life.
