Should have been type: Human Rigger
And make artifact creature types: Contraptions

Then Steamflogger Boss will finally be useful.

i love the idea on this... though a planeswalker version would have been so much better....

my only comment on this would have to be his casting cost and his first ability.

4cc for a creature that pumps out thopters for as long as he has mana seems kind of overpowered considering there are lots of ways to generate an almost endless stream of mana nowadays. i agree with ~ShdwStalker, i think it should have been at least 2cc for his first ability.

however, the second ability is very fitting for him though... a creature that can generate a massive artifact construct screams Urza!

Alright, interesting take on Urza, but there a few things I wanna clear up. First off, his main passive ability, is it intended to affect you "and" your opponents? If not you should change it to:
Artifact spells you cast cost 2 less.

Otherwise you can leave it as is, as the wording on that is fine. The second effect produces thopters right? What good are thopters if they don't fly? So, since you chose the thopter creature type I assume you inteneded them to have flying. If this is the case change to:
1: Put a 0/2 Thopter artifact creature token with flying onto the battlefield.

The third ability is fine, I have no problems with that. The only issue I have is the Thopter creation costing only 1. If you added a tap I wouldn't care if it was 0, but 0/2 with flying for 1 is a bit much, maybe 2 instead? Then again if you made Urza cost more, like 6 or 7 or something, then that would balance out his effect only costing one. Well whatever you decide, confirm for me how the the first 2 effects were intended to function, if you don't mind. Tis just a thought.

the first ability, i could go either way. I'm thinking you because he's your ally.

*facepalm* forgot flying.
Ornithopter cost nothing and, that is what i was thinking. He is a master it wouldn't be difficult for him to create.

Actually, I just realized something wrong with the wording on the 3rd effect, it should be:
X, T: [effect]

I know Ornithopter costs 0 to cast, but then it also means you need the card in your hand to put one onto the battlefield. With Urzas effect you bypass the need for additional cards to put multiple copies of an ornithopter onto the battlefield. Any creation effect without a tap effect, usually comes with an added price, hence why I suggested 2 instead of 1.
