Is Azuki’s [On Play] like Play in Runeterra?
YesYes. Runeterra’s Play keyword and Azuki’s [On Play] both trigger when you play the card, and not when it’s summoned another way.
On Play in the Azuki TCG
[On Play] effects happen when the card is played: from your hand, or from your deck when an effect such as Skyreach Gate plays it. Bringing an entity through the Gate doesn’t trigger it again, and neither does any other move between zones. The card is already on the field when its own effect resolves.
The same
- Both trigger only on playing the card.
Different
- In Runeterra, Play is a unit keyword; spells just do what they say. Azuki weapons carry [On Play] too.
Legends of Runeterra: checked against the Riot: Legends of Runeterra keywords. Azuki TCG: printed card text and the rules.
