Not sure why they made the Mecha Phantom Beast a Link 3... But, I can work with that. Basically Speedroids become more valuable in helping Mecha Phantom Beast make this. Additionally, Needlefiber, also, helps in the making of this especially with getting O-lion in the GY for additional plays. With that in mind... I could see Mecha Phantom Beast easily make Dracossack or Jaculuslan. Another thing to note is that this makes Coltwing more viable since Mecha Phantom Beast have struggled with SS'ing in the past. I really can't wait to try this sucker out.

Although it is a bit of a bummer that the Link itself doesn't have same protection effect like most of the MPB, but oh well...

They made the MPB a Link-3 because the archtype can fart out so many tokens they could have had it be a Link-4 and not be a problem for them.

On the contrary, they actually only have so many play makers that generate Tokens that don't require set up: Tetherwolf and Raiten (this one we just got recently mind you). The ones that do require set-up to generate Tokens are so awkward and all over the place: Megaraptor (requires you to generate a Token), Hamstrat (requires you to flip), Colwing (requires you to Special Summon), Black Falcon (requires you to attack), etc.While Token generation is supposedly their gimmick, they are pretty bad at it especially when under pressure. If anything, I would say utilizing Tokens while lacking the means to do so efficiently on their own is their actual gimmick.

But, like I said... There is room for splashing some external support like Speedroids and Needlefber to help the archetype with its speed issues.
