I cannot foresee a time when somebody will wait till T4 to play this, even in blue.
So, T3, draw two cards, proliferate the abundance of things blue has to proliferate,
Even a poison counter from a well-placed Inkmoth Nexus or Blighted Agent.
I personally believe every infect deck should use this, and many other decks that love counters.
Now, as far as Standard goes:
This is infect-control's bff.
The amount of advantage this card gives (+1 card, possibly +1 infect and +1 any other counters of importance) cannot be ignored.

my pyromancer deck will like these. i run jace beleren and chandra ablaze so the proliferate just speeds up my overkill condition. ultimate jace on self then ultimate chandra with tons of burn spells to cast. and i like the card draw

Draw two cards: {3} (Divination, not a great card but right on the curve)
Proliferate: {(U/P)}? Holy crap! It's Vampire Nighthawk all over again!

As has been mentioned... colorless sign in blood for 1 more, plus proliferate, which can even 'nullify' that extra mana cost if you have as little as an Everflowing Chalice.
If you don't realise how much potential this card has, work on your card rating skills. ^^

@kiseki
I guess what metalevolence meant is Tezzeret, being neutral for Mirran and Phyrexian, seems odd to have a spell like this. IMO, this card should have a different name. A name that has nothing to do with Tezzeret. The name, art and the actual ability of this card contradicts each other.
the name - seems to me the name suggest that this is Tezzeret's special unique spell but why does it have proliferate 
the art - it looks like he's hiding or spying against the phyrexian machine priests. are they imposing a threat to tezzeret? is he in pursuit and in danger with those priests? then again, why proliferate?
the mechanic - draw a card - not very tezzeret to me. thirst for knowledge seems to be a better 'tezzeret's gambit' for me. proliferate? again a phyrexian original mechanic. why give it to tezzeret who is currently agent of bolas ?
so @kiseki, yes you're right. this deserves a phyrexian watermark, but IMO, doesn't deserve a ... (see all)

What watermark do you give tezzeret's spell? I guess phyrexian fits better than mirran, but it still seems odd.

So, a colorless Sign in Blood that proliferates for {1} more? Or at least that seems to be how it will play out.........wat.

@metalevolence
There are two very good reasons to give this the phyrexian watermark:
1) proliferate is a phyrexian ability
2) phyrexian mana is a phyrexian ability
There is no question whatsoever, as it fits perfectly.

Its a generic draw spell, at sorcery speed. If you play blue, there's no reason to run it. However, the draw is that I can run this in my 
/
deck for some needed card advantage. I'm thinking this will be an early pick in draft, and that's based solely on the card draw. The proliferate just adds field advantage (have another counter, Tumble Magnet ).
