Is Azuki’s Infiltrate like “can’t be blocked” in Magic?
PartlyPartly. An unblockable Magic creature always hits the player, planeswalker or battle it attacked. An Infiltrate attacker can’t be redirected by Defender, but it still picks a legal target, and Taunt still applies.
Infiltrate in the Azuki TCG
When an entity with Infiltrate attacks, your opponent can’t use Defender to redirect the attack. Responses still work, and so does Taunt, since Taunt limits which targets you may pick. When Scarlett attacks, you may give it Infiltrate and +1 attack; if you do, it is sacrificed at the end of the turn.
The same
- Both stop the defender putting a creature in the way.
Different
- An Azuki attacker chooses its target: the leader or a tapped entity. Infiltrate makes sure that choice sticks.
- A tapped Taunt entity still forces an Infiltrate attacker to attack it.
Magic: The Gathering: checked against the Magic Comprehensive Rules. Azuki TCG: printed card text and the rules.
