Rules Q&A

• Q: Hello. If I win a duel with a personality with a weapon attached and I have Dance of Blades in play, can I use Tetsu Kama Mura's trait to draw a card from the focus pool that I put at the bottom of the deck when the duel ended? Thanks a lot.
  Dance of Blades Iaijutsu • Kata Limited: Put this card into play in your home. Discard any other Kata cards you control. While this card remains in play, you have the ability: "Reaction: After one of your Personalities wins a duel, if he has a Weapon: Draw a card."
  Tetsu Kama Mura Before you draw a card: You may draw it from the bottom of your deck. Limited: Look at the top card of your Fate deck. You may put it at the bottom of your deck.
  A: Read this entry in the comprehensive rules.
  You will note that step H (Determine Outcome) is well before step K (Duel Cleanup, where focus pools are then sent to the bottom of the deck).
