Is Killing Mist’s disable like Path to the Peak in Pokémon?
PartlyPartly. Path to the Peak gives every Pokémon with a Rule Box, on both sides, no Abilities while the Stadium stays in play. Killing Mist disables all card effects of one entity, for good.
Effects disabled in the Azuki TCG
With a Ninja in your Garden, Killing Mist disables the card effects of an opposing entity with 7 or less health in the Garden or Alley. Under the Azuki judges’ rulings of November 1–2, 2026, disabling an entity permanently turns off its printed abilities and removes abilities other cards had already granted it (such as Defender), while keeping stat changes, negative statuses like Rooted or Shocked, and any abilities granted afterward.
The same
- Both turn off printed abilities while leaving stats, damage and attached cards alone.
Different
- Path to the Peak hits a whole class of Pokémon on both sides and stops when the Stadium leaves. Killing Mist targets one opposing entity and never ends.
- Path to the Peak only stops Abilities: the Pokémon’s attacks, and what those attacks do, still work. Killing Mist turns off all of the entity’s printed text. It can still attack, with its printed attack and nothing else.
Pokémon TCG: checked against the Pokémon TCG rulebook. Azuki TCG: printed card text and the rules.
