Card Trivia:Dragon Knight Draco-Equiste


 * This is the Cover Card for Duelist Revolution.


 * Although tangentially related to them, this is the first Cover Card to not have a relation to the Signer Dragons.
 * This is also the second Ghost Rare to not related to any Archetype ("Honest" was the first).


 * This card's pose looks like "Stardust Dragon". Additionally, both this card and "Stardust Dragon" are WIND Attribute Monsters and they are both used by Yusei Fudo.


 * This is the Dragon-Type equivalent of "UFOroid Fighter", which takes "UFOroid" and fuses it with any Warrior-Type monster.


 * This is the Dragon-type equivalent of "Elemental Hero Neos Knight", which takes "Elemental Hero Neos" and fuses it with any Warrior-Type monster.


 * This is the third strongest WIND Monster in the game, the second being "Shooting Star Dragon", and the strongest is "Majestic Star Dragon".
 * Coincidentally, all three are used by Yusei Fudo.


 * In Latin, the word "Draco" refers to Dragon.
 * "Equiste" refers to an order of Roman warriors who fought on horseback. Since "Equiste" is actually a plural form of the singular "eques", a more accurate name might be "Dragoeques". However, the use of the plural word is likely a reference to the fact that "Drago-Equiste" is a Fusion Monster.


 * This card's ability to reverse effect damage is similar to the effects of "Nature's Reflection", "Crimson Fire" and "Spell of Pain".


 * Interestingly, in the anime this is a Fusion of Yusei Fudo's two favorite cards, "Stardust Dragon" and "Junk Warrior". It's effect allows it to be treated as Stardust Dragon in a manner similar to Junk Warrior's effect, where it gets stronger based on cards you've already played. It's second effect is very defensive, reflecting Yusei's overall style of play.


 * Despite the symbolism of it's Fusion material from the anime, this monster looks more like "Stardust Dragon" was fused with "Gaia Knight, the Force of the Earth". "Gaia Knight", however, does bear similarities with lots of other cards Yusei uses, like "Junk Warrior", and the various Machine-Types.
