Does 'pay 1 Red' mean pay 1 power or 1 energy, or both?

Ruling: 'Pay 1 Red' means pay 1 energy AND 1 power (red). The '1' denotes an extra energy cost, and the red symbol denotes the power cost.

Sequence:

  • Exhaust a rune of any color (to pay the 1 energy)
  • Recycle a red rune specifically (to pay the red power cost)

Nuances:

  • If a card only wants power to be paid, the syntax does not include the '1' in the cost
