That's the point. Considering the easy Special Summoning (getting a Beast-Warrior and a Machine to your Graveyard isn't exactly difficult, and considering it's from your hand, field, and/or Graveyard in a whole mix) for a 3800 ATK...yeah. Though, I suppose it wouldn't hurt if the Battle Damage was merely HALVED and not axed entirely. But then again, we got another AWESOME Skill Drain monster.

OCG, of course; otherwise, it wouldn't be in the OCG news site.

I have to disagree with how "cool" the summoning effect is; Beast-Warriors and Machines aren't exactly the ideal monster types to build a deck around together. Unless we're talking about the uber-spammable Cyber Dragon or Jinzo, there's really no Machines that work well with Beast-Warriors, especially in a Skill Drain deck (the only two cards that could benefit from that would be Fusilier Dragon and Divine Machine King Ur; Beast-Warriors have Barbaros, Manticore of Darkness, Panther Warrior, Indomitable Fighter Lei Lei, and Boar Soldier for Skill Drain bait). The good thing about it is it's currently the strongest monster that can be Normal Summoned (since its special summon effect is just an alternate way of summoning it, not a "Special Summon Only" condition), it can be used with Wild Nature's Release (bringing its ATK up to 5000, enough to tackle the strongest base-attack/defense monsters out there), and it fits in very well in an all-Beast-Warrior Skill Drain deck. Now all we need is more Skill Drain-like effects that work for both fields (and I don't mean stuff like the Absorbing Mirrors, since they don't work on continuous effects).
