This was first done in Mirrodin, and was a marginal card in limited then (in possibly the format which most rewarded playing small creatures ever, between common Bonesplitter and uncommon Loxodon Warhammer).
You played JESUS?!?! I heard none of his guys stay in the graveyard, and once you think you have him beat he ALWAYS comes back to win within three turns. I like...WORSHIP him.
That's an interesting question, and it's kind of hard to say. Green and white both have 2-power 3-drops with no downside (Blade of the Sixth Pride) or even upside (Brushstrider, Daring Skyjek) that see little if any play, but they're in high enough demand in red that they see play with downside (Gore-house Chainwalker, Borderland Marauder) and people are excited to cube them. The drawbacks of the 3-power 2-drops in black are so awful that most of them never see any play at all besides Oona's Prowler, but I think a vanilla 3/1 would.
It would be worth a try if they ever printed one.

I would definitely consider a 3/1 for 2. Being colorless is a bi enough upside to make it worthwhile over the slightly better ones in the colors that don't run them.
I really value colorless Aggro support. If I cut my artifact section down to 3 cards, they would be porcelain legionnaire, bone splitter, and coalition relic.

You're the dude who just lies a lot and makes people hate you and then magically becomes town later, right?

Even if I was going to only run 3 aggro support artifacts out of your list (Relic isn't an aggro card) it would be Skullclamp, Tangle Wire and Grafted Wargear first. But hey, that's just my $0.02.
Is anyone else somewhat stoked about a vanilla 2/1 for 2?
You realize we've had this guy for the better part of a year already, right?
There's also Lore Seeker, which is (better than) a 2/2 for 2.

Just a hunch, but we may be feeding a troll here.
Generals meant to be drafted first in a single pack of 6 cards.
And here is the actual cube, meant to be drafted in 4 regular sized packs. (60 card decks)

Would a 2 mana artifact 3/1 be cubeworthy? I'm guessing not due to creatures being better lately.
I used to write cube articles on StarCityGames, now for GatheringMagic and podcast about cube (w/Antknee42.)
