This card's artwork depicts a string of fresh garlic bulbs wrapped around a vampire's neck. Ironically, garlic is often used to ward off and repel vampires in mythology.
This card's effect reflects this, as it can "ward off" card effects and "repel" any attacks from the opponent's monster and destroy it.
The five garlic bulbs in this card's artwork references this card's effect to be equipped to a Level 5 monster.
