Card Trivia:
This was the first Link Monster revealed in the OCG /TCG , as well as the first Link Monster to be Summoned in the Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS anime.
This monster and "Firewall Dragon " are the first ace monsters of a spin-off protagonist whose Type is neither Dragon nor Warrior , thus breaking the pattern of the spin-off protagonists' ace monsters (though "Decode Talker" does resemble a Warrior and "Firewall Dragon" does resemble a Dragon, so they only break the pattern semantically).
It is also the first time a protagonist uses a newly created Type (in this case, Cyberse ).
This card eventually being replaced by the 2500 ATK "Firewall Dragon" as Yusaku's ace monster mirrors both Jaden Yuki 's "Elemental HERO Flame Wingman ", who eventually got replaced by the 2500 ATK "Elemental HERO Neos ", and Yusei Fudo 's "Junk Warrior ", who eventually got replaced by the 2500 ATK "Stardust Dragon ".
This monster has a defensive-based LIGHT counterpart: "Encode Talker ". And a WIND counterpart from the gym
While this card is offensively-themed, its effect is far more defensive than "Encode Talker"
This monster appears in the artworks of "Recoded Alive " and "Link Restart ".
This card can be viewed as a personification of Yusaku because it gains power by using others to achieve its goals (similar to how Yusaku views Ignis as a tool for his ends).
Furthermore, its effect that requires sacrificing a monster it is Linked to for his safety is similar to how Yusaku wouldn't hesitate to delete Ignis if the Knight of Hanoi didn't stop his destruction of LINK VRAINS .
This card's name is a pun on "Code Talker". These individuals, who were typically Native Americans, were used by the United States during wars in the 20th Century as a means of encrypting and decrypting communications by using obscure languages that were not widespread and were difficult to translate.
