Hi !

My opponent plays Determination and First and Final Strike to duel a Unicorn Clan personnality. During the duel, I focus a Crosswind's Cut Style.

What happens ?

I mean, does Determination negates the negating from Crosswind's Cut Style ? The real question would be, does Determination also negates what happens during the duel and/or focus effects ?

Thank you for your time.

Determination will prevent the "Destroy the loser" effect from being negated by Crosswinds Cut Style.
