Here is my multiplayer EDH deck with Grenzo as my general. I try my best to make this tribal and keep as many goblins or goblin themed cards in the deck.
Remove Silent Arbiter. It completely goes against the token theme. Maybe add Viscera Seer so you can sac tokens, scry creatures to the bottom, then cheat them out with Grenzo.
Mana Echoes can do a lot of work in a goblin tribal deck. With Echoes, Grenzo, a few goblins on the field you can basically dump all the creatures in library onto the field in one turn.
I think Warren Weirding is a great card since it gives you a way to kill opponents creatures but more importantly, create your own Goblins. As it is also a Goblin, you can abuse some shenanigans with that.
Siege-gang Commander is on my wants list and is awaiting to go in my deck. Dimir House Guard will stay in as a tutor, a possible creature that can be regenerated with the goblin tokens, plus it can be recurred as a creature thanks to Grenzo. I was thinking about putting in Dimir Machinations so I can tutor a bunch of 3 CMC cards.
It is hard for me to take Silent Arbiter out because it allows me to be safe when I don't have enough Goblin bodies to throw at my opponents' attacking creatures. Crystal Ball does seem pretty awesome!
I do not have a Vampiric Tutor. My friends do allow proxies but you need to have at least 1 copy of it.
Goblin Charbelcher + Goblin Recruiter - Has the Potential to kill off one opponent if you can stack the deck correctly (and get a mountain in a RB deck), plus Charbelcher puts stuff on the bottom of your library so you can set up favorable Grenzo activations.
Cloak and Dagger is a nifty equip for this deck. Auto-equips to the General, gives him shroud, and gives a power boost (granted in a more Goblin Tribal focused build, that part might not matter)
Tuktuk Scrapper is a Goblin that can answer some problem artifacts. Goblin Setteler can do the same for problem lands.
I also like Dimir House Guard in this deck, in the right build, you can set up a good tool box for it, and it can serve as a great sac outlet if you so desire.
If you really want to build your deck to fully support your "general" you can easily aim for lots and lots of creatures, and pretty much no spells beside that unless they are seriously strong.
If you want removal, we have Shriekmaw and the like, to get as many creatures as possible, which also further decreases your overall mana curve, as you want to put all your mana into your general anyway.
Goblin theme is totally fine if you want to.
Just replace all the non-creatures with creatures that do similiar things.
The small amount of actual spells i would consider to be worth including are Living Death and its like.
Tutors are boring in my book for such a deck like this one. If you play Grenzo, then abuse him, if you have him on the field all you want to do is using his ability.

My question to everyone out there. Did they actually make a token for the 5/5 colorless Goblin Golem artifact creature that Tuktuk is able to produce?
Any comments and helpful suggestions would be great!

Change Dimir House Guard to Siege-Gang Commander.

Conjurer's Bauble seems like a wasted slot without a way to recur it. Add Goblin Welder, or swap Bauble out for Crystal Ball.
Mana Echoes can do a lot of work in a goblin tribal deck. With Echoes, Grenzo, a few goblins on the field you can basically dump all the creatures in library onto the field in one turn.
I think Warren Weirding is a great card since it gives you a way to kill opponents creatures but more importantly, create your own Goblins. As it is also a Goblin, you can abuse some shenanigans with that.
Though I do agree with adding Mogg War Marshal and Siege-Gang Commander.
Depending on how much mana you have kicking around, Goblin Warrens might not be a bad addition.

Earwig Squad is another Goblin Rogue

Just replace all the non-creatures with creatures that do similiar things.
For example Lightning Volley should probably be Furystoke Giant anyway, its so much better.
To combo with Grenzo you can use Mana Echoes for great effect.
Skirk Prospector also helps to power thru your deck.
