Seems about as advisable as putting "Destroy all Dinosaurs." into Ixalan. You have a surprising amount of hate cards for the artifact theme you supposedly want to encourage. Strong plentiful hate cards against a flagship theme usually is a bad idea.

I point at Shatterstorm in Antiquities - which set had a heck of a lot of artifact hate, in retrospect.

Still, theme-hosers are used a lot more sparingly nowadays than they were then. And are usually slightly more subtle. And in the next set when they realise "Ooops" :)

The other form of hoser is something that is underpowered unless the meta swings overly far towards the thing it is hosing.

­Colossus of Sardia from Antiquities is still good to go!
