Is deeper harder faster an example of polysyndeton?

It is not. Polysyndeton is defined as instances in which several conjunctions are repeated, as in the sentence "he ran and jumped and laughed and played." Polysyndeton especially refers to instances in which these conjunctions could be replaced with commas, and make for an easier reading experience. The phrase "deeper harder faster" does not include any conjunctions, and is then not an example of polysyndeton.
