Wizards is doubling down on killing any sort of artifact strategy in the crib. I guess we shouldn't be surprised.

1. (Ravnica Allegiance): You can't keep a good esper control deck down... Or Wilderness Reclamation... or Gates...
2. (War of the Spark): Guys, I know what we need! We need a cycle of really idiotic flavor text victory cards! Jace's Triumph...
3. (War of the Spark): Lets make the format with control have even more control!
This is pretty decent. It gets Karn and if there are any problematic artifacts out there, it deals with them as well. Essentially an Abrade on legs, which will be fantastic for limited.

The "Crazy One", playing casual magic and occasionally dipping his toes into regular play since 1994.
Currently focusing on Pre-Modern (Mono-Black Discard Control) and Modern (Azorious Control, Temur Rhinos).
Find me at the Wizard's Tower in Ottawa every second Saturday afternoons.
I do so enjoy seeing another strong goblin like this.
Also... since it hasn't been mentioned yet, thought I would throw this out there, with Mycosynth Lattice out he can blow up any non-land permanent. So might try fitting this guy into my Goblin Commander deck.
With the recent spate of Tron hate cards popping up. Makes me wonder if they are about to bring back the Tron Lands to Standard next set. If not they sure hate Tron and its variants.

Didn't MTGO get new Tron land art just recently?
It would be nice if they just pony up and do the seasons again.
It's like they're just throwing Tron hate at the wall to see what sticks.
"Sphere? Eh, did some things. Reckoning? No... Why'd we make it only creatures? Field of Ruin? Nice boon to the control match. Trophy? [TBD] Cratermaker? [TBD]" - WotC, probably
Creature — Goblin Warrior {UC}
1, Sacrifice Goblin Cratermaker: Choose one —
• Goblin Cratermaker deals 2 damage to target creature.
• Destroy target colorless nonland permanent.
2/2
Quite the suspicious way to write artifact.
Eldrazi confirmed?

I hope not. I don't feel WotC won't mismanage Eldrazi again.
As it is, I think the card is alright. 3CMC for 2 damage? Getting rid of it is going to be a PITA.

Oh well, time to wear my tinfoil hat
Ah well, we know how the community feels about Tron.
