Is IKZ like lands in Magic?
PartlyPartly. Both tap for resources and untap each turn, but Magic lands come from your deck and can flood or screw you. IKZ comes from a separate pile, one every 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
- You tap them to pay and they untap on your turn; mana or IKZ left open can be used on the opponent’s turn.
Different
- Lands are drawn from your deck. IKZ sits in its own 10-card pile and arrives every turn, so you never miss a drop.
- IKZ has no colors. Instead, your deck may only hold cards of your leader’s element and Neutral cards.
