• This is one of the cover cards of Structure Deck: Alba Strike/Structure Deck: Albaz Strike.

• This monster appears in the artwork of "Branded Fusion".

• This monster is an empowered form of "Aluber the Jester of Despia", after stealing the Dragon Alchemy (per the Branded Fusion wallpaper in Master Duel) power of "Fallen of Albaz" in the artwork of "Branded Lost".
  • Fittingly, this card lists "Fallen of Albaz" as the second Fusion Material, unlike the other Albaz Dragons that list it as the first material, while "Aluber" can be used as the DARK material for this monster's Fusion Summon.
  • The Attribute of this monster is LIGHT, while the Attributes of the other Albaz Dragons are all DARK.

• "Lubellion" is a portmanteau of ruber (Latin for "red"), "Albion", and "rebellion".
  • The kanji Shin'en (神炎, lit. "god flame") in the Japanese name of this card is a homophone of Shin'en (深淵, lit. "Abyss"), referencing the 'abyss' mentioned in the flavor text of "Aluber the Dogmatic".

• This monster has an empowered form combined with "Fallen of Albaz": "Alba-Lenatus the Abyss Dragon".

• This monster's metallic appearance is very similar to that of "Titaniklad the Ash Dragon".
  • The kanji in their Japanese names are directly related to fire, with Shin'en (神炎, "god flame") in this card's name being a stark contrast to Kaijin (灰燼, "ash") in "Titaniklad's" name.
    • Kaijin can also be interpreted as "worthless", as in the phrase Kaijin-tokasu (灰燼と化す, "turn to ashes"), an expression for effort that is rendered worthless due to ruin or failure. This may reflect how "Albaz" is the 'abandoned' half of "Aluber", like ash is the 'worthless' remnant of fire.

• This monster has a "Bystial" counterpart: "The Bystial Lubellion".
  • Both monsters share the same Type (Dragon), Attribute (LIGHT), Level (8), ATK (2500), and DEF (3000).

• This card is the opposite counterpart of "Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon".
  • Both have opposite ATK/DEF, as well as opposite Attributes: this card is LIGHT, like the "Despia" Fusion Monsters, while "Mirrorjade" is DARK, like all the other draconic forms of "Albaz".
  • This monster is an empowered form of "Aluber the Jester of Despia", while "Mirrorjade" is an empowered form of "Fallen of Albaz".
  • Both have higher ATK/DEF than the previous dragonic forms: this card has 1000 more DEF than "Masquerade the Blazing Dragon", while "Mirrorjade" has 500 more ATK/DEF than the other Albaz Dragons.
  • This monster has a fire theme, while "Mirrorjade" has an ice theme.
  • Both are depicted fighting in the artwork of "Branded Fusion".
  • Both monsters have mirrored poses in their card artworks.
