Attacking tapped entities vs other games

You can attack the opposing leader, or an entity in their Garden that is tapped. Untapped entities and the Alley are off limits unless a card says otherwise. Attacking taps your entity, so every attack you make offers your opponent a target on their turn.

Is it like…

Attacking rested Characters in One Piece TCGYes

Yes. One Piece attacks go at the Leader or rested Characters, and attacking rests your Character. Azuki attacks work the same way: the leader or tapped entities.

What’s the same and what’s different

Challenging exerted characters in Disney LorcanaMostly

Mostly. Lorcana characters can only challenge exerted characters, and questing or challenging exerts them. That’s the Azuki rule too. Lorcana just has no player to attack.

Attacking any minion in HearthstoneNo

No. In Hearthstone you can attack any enemy minion or the hero. In the Azuki TCG only the leader and tapped Garden entities are targets, unless a card says otherwise.

Attacking players in Magic: The GatheringNo

No. Magic creatures attack players, planeswalkers and battles, never other creatures; the defender picks blockers. Azuki attackers can choose a tapped entity as their target.

Blocking and Challenger in Legends of RuneterraNo

No. Runeterra attackers line up and the defender assigns blockers; only Challenger lets an attacker pick who blocks. An Azuki attacker picks its target, as long as it’s tapped or the leader.
