Card Trivia:Tellarknight Ptolemaeus

  • This card is named after the astronomer Ptolemy and is possibly based on his geocentric model of the universe, which appears in the background of its artwork.
    • This card's cost of detaching 7 Xyz Materials in order to use its turn skipping effect may be a reference to the 7 spheres that orbit Earth in Ptolemy's model: the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.
  • This is the first "tellarknight" monster to be Forbidden.
  • As its second effect requires 7 Xyz Materials to be detached to activate it, this card is the Xyz Monster that requires the largest defined number of Xyz Materials to be detached from it to activate its effect.
