- Wiraqocha (Viracocha) is one of the most important Inca Deities. He was the god of the sun and the storms and according with the folklore, the creator of the Inca civilization. It's importance was so big that even non-Incan cultures adored it. It's name literally means "Sea Foam".
- This card's artwork is based on a Condor, which is one of the most sacred animals in the Inca Religion and Chile's national animal.
- This card is the only Earthbound Immortal to have the same type (Winged Beast) as another Earthbound Immortal which is Earthbound Immortal Aslla piscu. Additionally, Aslla piscu is based on a hummingbird, the smallest bird, whereas Wiraqocha Rasca is based on a condor, the biggest flying bird.
- This card and Earthbound Immortal Aslla piscu have the highest Level of Winged Beast monsters.
- This is the weakest Earthbound Immortal with only 100 ATK and DEF, though its effect in the OCG/TCG causes its ATK and DEF to grow to 3100, making it the strongest Earthbound Immortal.
- In the anime, this card has only 1 ATK and DEF while in real life this card has 100 ATK & DEF. The Wicked Avatar has an almost similar treatment - its ATK is equal to the highest ATK on the field + 1 in the manga, but it is + 100 in the real life card.
- This is the only Earthbound Immortal to have a different effect in the anime and in the OCG (its anime effect is reduce the Life Points of the opponent to one if you skip your Battle Phase), not counting the effects that attack the opponent directly and protecting itself from being attacked.
- This card, along with all other Earthbound Immortals, is rising from the ground, as if coming out of the Nazca Lines.
