When I see Tezzeret, there's a voice in my head saying: Mycosynth Lattice, only if you have mana generation, few of Silver Myr or other stuff like Arc Dagsson or Master Transmuter, of course.
If lacks of mana, or time, well, why don't try out March of the Machines instead?
Tezzeret gives you a lot of possibilities, a really good option for an artifact deck.
You can also try out Darksteel Citadel,... just 4 artifacts on game are enough to make some noise...

With Glaze Fiend and 0-drop artifacts makes for an interesting combo. Since I'm a total artifact nut, he's my favorite planeswalker. Also my first one pulled out so it's a sentimental relationship with this card.

Cant begin to fathom all that this big guy would do for my standard master transmuter deck. here i was thinking i was the only one who even thought of playing esper, since im the only one who plays it at my local shop. then i saw all of these comments.... I dont feel alone anymore. so now i am going to sell this maelstrom pulse i have, spend a few extra dollars, and replace one of my sphinx summoners with this. i just hope i have enough money for this and the launch party

Hey man, just wanted to address your third point about his -5 ability.
Don't the artifacts he turns into 5/5 creatures keep their abilities? Making Master of Etherium better!
Just making sure. Otherwise they his ability would have to read, "...and lose all other abilities...". Right?

Shouldn't he be an Artifact Planeswalker -- Tezzeret? I mean, the creatures from Esper are all Artifact Creature, because of the 'enhancement'...

keiyakins:
Supertype "Planeswalker" overrides all other types. Yes, his enhancements technically make him an "artifact" but the walker spark negates all other classification.
On a mechanical note; it would suck if your opponent could Shatter and or Steal Artifact him.

Amazing -5 if you use it on howling mines. Your opponent doesn't want to kill them, but they lose card advantage either way.

I use him to fix mana (artifact lands from Mirrodin) and accelerate Nicol Bolas. Diving for more land doesn't draw down his life on the 2nd ability, and you only need one more counter to crush after a Damnation. In a Soprano's flavored Superfriends concept, he's the guy you're not looking at with Nicol drawing the heat, or Sorin and Chandra keeping the crowds down in between Damnations brought out by Liliana. Hee hee heeeee...I love five Planeswalkers brought together by the love for power.

I run a blue/black arcbound deck with two tezzerets, and i wanted to bring up another combo using tezzeret's untap abillity: if you use a lot of atrifact creatures, have a Steel Overseer and at least 2 Voltaic Keys in your deck. Tap S. Overseer to put +1/+1 counters on all your artifact creatures, then use the first voltaic key to untap him, and retap for another +1/+1 counter. Repeat with the second Voltaic Key to get a third round of counters and (hopefully you see where this is going) use tezzeret's +1 to untap both keys and repeat the process 2 more times. That totals to FIVE +1/+1 counters on every artifact creature you control, and you can repeat this every turn. Of course, this makes his -5 pretty useless, but who cares? The rest of your creatures should be unstoppable by this point.
