"This card's activation and effects cannot be negated by effect of a Link Monster. When this card is activated: Return all Link Monsters on the field that used a Token(s) as its Link Material to the Extra-Deck. Neither Player can used Token as Link Material."

 

Omiting the "ignore" unless you explain to me what kind of interaction it prevent

 

Too restrictive IMO. While i get that it prevent Token Abuse from the likes of Tomahawk, Grinder, Scapegoat, etc, but its also eliminate the token option for non-meta decks. Also, most of the good link like Borrel, Unicorn, Firewall most of the time made using Link monster summoned from the Token making the Bounce effect has less impact.

I'm assuming the "ignore" effect lets it bypass effects that would protect a monster from this card. (e.g. Qliphort Genius' immunity to Traps). Although, in that case, following Skill Drain rulings, a Genius Summoned using a Token before this card's activation would remain unaffected by this card anyway, similar to how an Apoqliphort Towers already on board will be unaffected by a Skill Drain activated afterwards.

 

Still, the protection feels like an overkill to. You make the card safe practically just because you can.

Anyway, card basically is a meta call floodgate. I guess it's only acceptable because of its dependency on the meta. If released in the current meta, I assume it would shake a few things up, hurting Hornet Bit, Scapegoat and the apparently rising Token-based Knightmare Extra Link decks a.k.a. "Good stuff Links". But then, the dominant decks could side or main outs to deal with it as they already do vs. other floodgates.
