Is Azuki’s [On Play] like “when you play this character” in Lorcana?
YesYes. Lorcana’s “When you play this character” abilities and Azuki’s [On Play] both trigger only when the card is played.
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 on playing the card, not on other ways it enters.
Different
- Lorcana words it per card type (“When you play this character”, “When you play this item”). Azuki uses one tag, [On Play], on entities and weapons alike.
