This card was designed to be a specific counter to the "Blackwing" archetype. This is supported by the following:
This card was released when "Blackwing" Decks were becoming popular in the meta.
"Blackwing" Decks focus on swarming the field easily, and since all "Blackwing" monsters are Winged Beast, this card's effect is useful against them.
"Blackwing" monsters can be split into 2 design types: monsters that are birds, and humanoid monsters wearing avian outfits. This monster resembles the latter, except with actual avian features.
This card's TCG name is based on "Black Feather", the OCG name of the "Blackwing" archetype.
Additionally, "Blackwing" monsters are all DARK-Attribute, while this monster is LIGHT.
