Wow! Those were my exact same choices before I asked the question.
2 copies of this one for me
Okay cool. I always prefer having different art for duplicate cards. But that is just me. I normally run a small % of planeswalkers in my cube so I never duplicate a planeswalker but I have recently made a change in policy with the Garruk tribal.
And now I wish to duplicate Teferi, Master of Time with two different artworks to present him as a time traveler arriving here from two different destinations in time.
This guy is dope:
Good aggressive body, relevant typing, and he plays super well with recursive aggro and aristocrat style decks. Carrion Feeder + Gravecrawler + flashing out this guy to refuel your hand sounds like a fun time.

Very happy to see Conclave Mentor, now we just need the UG one and the RG one (which Chris used to run already!)
Heartfire Immolator is less exciting for me but far more necessary. Red desperately needs good 2-drops and Abbot of Keral Keep kept performing worse than it looked so I'm glad we have access to this

Well, a 3/1 for 3 ain't nuthin' to write home about, but a zombie knight is always relevant to my interests. I dunno, though. I ran Caller of the Claw for a while and holding up 3 mana every turn for when combat went south was always pretty awkward. Black does have a lot more sac outlets, though, so it might be okay. Worth testing, at least.

The fact that it counts tokens that died is a pretty big deal for me
I would run caller of the claw if it counted tokens
I will say that this set is pretty stacked for black 3 drops, though:
This is the cutest card I've seen all day. It looks very fun for retail limited!
There is some redundancy in white/red for this effect now with Spitemare, Truefire Captain, Stuffy Doll and of course Boros Reckoner.
I reckon it serves as a moat on its own and can wreak havoc when suited up - control the board while whittling down your opponent's life total. Cool and flavourful card.

And Boros Reckoner
Derp. This is what happens when you're multitasking

Ecstatic Orb
But... Boros Reckoner is right there at the end in your first post XRS. I'm confused

It was also at the beginning of the sentence when I quoted XRS
It was all over the place so I figured “Let’s add another reckoner to the fold.”

Hahahahaha, I hadn't even noticed that :') Though, I guess doubling up on Reckoner isn't the worst idea if you want to make this archetype happen
There is also Mogg Maniac. You could expand this package with Swans of Bryn Argol, Saber Ants and Broodhatch Nantuko. And then tie it all together with:

Man at one point I ran this as an "artifact payoff" in WB
Notes from the playtest:
"Oh Jesus Christ Chris why did you make Elesh Norn cost 5"
"Why does it have 4 toughness?"
"Between Go for the Throat, Ultimate Price, and Doom Blade this basically has hexproof from black"
I respect what Karavek Can do. It having 2 toughness likely actually leads to good gameplay.

I edited it. It originally read "Boros Reckoner., Truefire Captain, Stuffy Doll and of course Boros Reckoner."

Well I think if there's one thing we can take away from this discussion it's that you're not running enough boros reckoners
