Actually I just realized that you can't target him with Tezzeret... Still, I don't think every card needs to be flashy, but cubes do need some good filler cards to help smooth decks out. I am thinking a good cut for this might be hangarback walker. I think the two cards might be pretty close in power level (obviously play different roles). Hangerback walker is good, but it slows games down quite a bit, and I think from a good design perspective, playing cards that let you win games are better than cards that are designed so you don't lose.
*****. Multicolor. lol I didn't realize that either.
I think I prefer hangarback, though. You can notch that guy up, and I think the death trigger is very valuable.
It may not be flashy, but I have a soft spot for X spells of all kinds. Trample is welcome for when your plan is to go big, but I could genuinely see a random 3/3 reach be quite handy when you're staring down 2/1 flyers and the like. I do like the synergy you note with Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas as well. I'm also just keen on counters-dudes because I'm eager to have more things to proliferate, but that's pretty minor. Actually that pro Multicolor might be pretty good; we have lots of multicolor planeswalkers, and just randomly dodging the minus on Teferi or Vraska or Nicol Bolas might come up.
I find it a bit of a bummer when my artifacts don't interact too favorably with the likes of Goblin Welder, though. But on the other hand, while it may be too cute for cube, I could see this card working well alongside Emry, Lurker of the Loch; hypothetically, you might trade early and replay at higher cmc later in the game.
I don't really know if he makes it in, but, maybe.
