Why isn't he run in Azorius sideboards more often? I thought it was a good idea, but I'm a fairly new player and haven't seen him in any of the Azorius decklists. Why is that?
A card as expensive as Reckoner doesn't belong in a sideboard. His recent spike in price scares me too, he's no Snapcaster Mage . And what capriom85 said. He can still be in mono-red or white, but not a guild deck where only one of his colors apply.

Well, for starters, running a w/r card in a u/w deck is risky. Most Azorius decks run mostly on blue, and you need triple white to cast him in that type of deck bc you have no access to red. The problem here is that it becomes a problem...if you have triple white early on you wont be playing most of your deck...if you don't , reckoner is useless. He is better in American mid range
