I control Shiba Tsukune Experienced 2KYD (Phoenix Clan Champion. Toturi's Army). I am a Toturi's Army player. Can I play Faith In My Clan?
Similar question. If I am Unicorn Clan player, and I have Toku Experienced 2 (Monkey Clan Champion) in play. I use Arranged Marriage to make him Unicorn Clan, may I now use him to play Faith in My Clan?
The question, I guess, is does Faith In My Clan require "the current faction you are playing" clan champion, or just any clan champion as long as they are also aligned with your faction.
Faith In My Clan Reaction: Cancel an action. Play this card only if a Clan Champion from your Faction is in your army in the current battle.

In terms of Faith in My Clan, they are one and the same.
Shiba Tsukune Experienced 2KYD is a Clan Champion for all Faction keywords she has (Toturi's Army, Phoenix Clan)
Likewise, if you give Toku Experienced 2 your faction keyword (or are playing as the Toturi's Army faction), he acts as a Clan Champion for things like Seat of Power and Faith in My Clan.
