- The cards "Masaki the Legendary Swordsman", "Flame Manipulator" and "Heart of the Underdog" appear in this card's artwork.
- This is a possible reference to Joey Wheeler, as both monsters are Fusion Material for one of his signature cards, "Flame Swordsman".
- The "Heart of the Underdog" references the running gag that Joey is subjected to throughout the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime: its Japanese name, "Bonkotsu no Iji" features the word "bonkotsu", which Seto Kaiba uses to insult Joey. This is further reinforced during the Grand Championship arc, where Yugi Muto points out that "Heart of the Underdog" reminds him of Joey because he is considered to be the underdog.
- The cards indicate that the Deck depicted is a Normal Monster Deck, as "Masaki the Legendary Swordsman" and "Flame Manipulator" are both Normal Monsters and "Heart of the Underdog" is an excellent support card for Normal Monsters.
- This is a possible reference to Joey Wheeler, as both monsters are Fusion Material for one of his signature cards, "Flame Swordsman".
- This is the only card that allows the player to use monsters as Fusion Materials from four different places: the field, Deck, hand, and/or Graveyard.
- This is the only card to depict where banished cards are placed.
