• "Barrel Dragon" appears in this card's artwork.

• This card's name is based on the attack name of "Barrel Dragon" in the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime.

• This card's effect of destroying one card the opponent controls when two or more heads occur in a coin toss is an allusion to the effect of "Barrel Dragon" in the original Yu-Gi-Oh! manga and anime that gives it a number of attacks per turn equal to a number of successful roulette spins; Bandit Keith uses the effect in his duel against Joey Wheeler, where 2 out of 3 spins succeed and it battles and destroys both "Garoozis" and "Axe Raider" at the same time.
  • Of note is the effect of "Proton Blast" if one heads occurs in a coin flip deals 500 damage, while Joey Wheeler took 300 damage in the above scene.
  • The second effect is also similar to the effect of "Barrel Dragon" in the OCG/TCG.

• This card's third effect is likely a reference to "Pillager", a Spell Card used by Keith that forced the opponent to reveal their hand and allowed him to take one card from their hand.
