Having easy access to 3 colors doesn't necessarily just make control great. It's that there is a good 4 mana sweeper, along with very few good non-creature threats or instant speed interaction available to mid range decks. The two different sweepers neuters most of the super aggro decks chances, such as mono-W or mono-U. Only the super aggro burn decks can reliably beat them, as they don't get blown out by having 3+ creatures on the board to die to the sweeper.
You can have 3+ color formats where control sucks, it just requires things like good planeswalkers, vehicles or land creatures, hand disruption and/or good instant speed threats.
Something like a scrapheap scrounger would do a lot to keep control down. The new red vehicle, mizzium tank, might let slightly bigger red decks attack them from a different angle, too. More creatures, without increasing their exposure to a sweeper.
