Is IKZ like mana and spell mana in Runeterra?
MostlyMostly. Runeterra mana grows by one a round up to 10, like IKZ. Runeterra also saves up to 3 unspent mana as spell mana; unspent IKZ doesn’t carry over, but it does pay for Responses on your opponent’s turn.
IKZ in the Azuki TCG
IKZ is the Azuki TCG’s resource. Each turn you add 1 IKZ from your separate 10-card IKZ pile, up to 10, and tap it to pay costs. You pay a card’s whole cost at once, and nothing floats. IKZ you leave untapped at the end of your turn pays for Responses on your opponent’s turn.
The same
- One more a turn, up to 10, with nothing drawn from the deck.
Different
- Runeterra banks unspent mana as spell mana. Azuki IKZ just untaps on your next turn.
