This is the only Limit Over Accel Synchro Monster in the game as well as in the shows. It therefore requires at least three Synchro monsters, including exactly one Tuner Synchro Monster as a Synchro material.
This monster appears in the artwork of Limit Overdrive.
This monster has several counterparts:
Duel Dragon counterpart: Stardust Sifr Divine Dragon
Alternate-timeline counterpart: Cosmic Blazar Dragon
Retrain: Cosmic Quasar Dragon
In episode 150 of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, when this monster is Summoned and descends from above the sky, it resembles what a real quasar looks like: a giant vortex of gas with a jet of light emitting from its middle.
Since a quasar is a mass of extremely fast spinning matter around supermassive black holes located at the center of galaxies, this card's name might be referring to the spinning Ener-D that enables Synchro Summons and the fact that it is Summoned by a highly-evolved version of the Synchro Summon.
The bond of Team 5D's is also shown in this card's artwork, with 6 Synchro Rings behind it, each colored differently.
There are six Synchro rings behind it all colored differently to represent the bonds used to create the dragon. From the ring furthest in the back to the one in the front, they are Black-Winged Dragon (black), Red Dragon Archfiend (maroon), Black Rose Dragon (red), Ancient Fairy Dragon (green), Life Stream Dragon (yellow) and Stardust Dragon (white), respectively.
This card's Synchro requirements (1 Tuner Synchro Monster + 2 or more non-Tuner Synchro Monsters), Level, ATK and DEF are shared with its counterparts and T.G. Halberd Cannon.
The ATK and DEF of this card can be found by adding 700 ATK to the ATK of Shooting Star Dragon, similar to T.G. Blade Blaster and T.G. Halberd Cannon, as this card and Halberd Cannon are both evolved Accel Synchro Monsters.
This card's effect is similar to (if not reminiscent of) the effect from Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode. Shooting Quasar Dragon can negate any card effect and Special Summon Shooting Star Dragon from the Extra Deck when it leaves the field, much like how Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode can negate any card effect and Special Summons Stardust Dragon when it's destroyed and sent to the Graveyard.
This monster's artwork seems to mirror Cosmic Blazar Dragon's artwork.
Shooting Quasar Dragon is going up to the right, with its head turned to the left.
Cosmic Blazar Dragon is going down to the left, with its head turned to the right.
This monster's body is similar to those of the Timelord monsters.
Fittingly, this card was used by Yusei Fudo during his Duel against Z-one in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime, who used a Timelord Deck.
Just as how Stardust Dragon opposes Red Dragon Archfiend and Shooting Star Dragon opposes Red Nova Dragon, this card is likely a rival to Red Supernova Dragon".

It is not necessary to perform these additional attacks in a row. You can attack once, attack with a different monster, and then perform the second attack.
While performing a second or higher attack with "Shooting Quasar Dragon", if "Skill Drain" is activated at Attack Declaration or during the Battle Step, since "Shooting Quasar Dragon" has its effects negated, the attack stops.
