Rulings
- He does not bow when destroying Retainers. [card text] Accumulated Rulings, February 8, 2000, p. 40
- His extra focus happens "before the duel". [card text] Accumulated Rulings, February 8, 2000, p. 40
- Since focus cards add to Chi as soon as they're played [rulebook], he does not die instantly if he uses his ability while wielding a Tetsubo, provided he takes his free first focus and plays a card with a focus value greater than 0. Accumulated Rulings, February 8, 2000, p. 40
- Reactions to entering a duel, such as the Double Chi kiho, occur after this focus. Accumulated Rulings, February 8, 2000, p. 41
