Nakano's ability is a Tactical Battle/Open. Is it a Tactical Open? Does it take up his use of Tactician for the turn, or do you get a use of Tactician once per battle? Can Kaiu Nakano use his ability as an Open, then go to battle and discard a card to his Tactician keyword for a force pump?

Per the CR on Tactical Actions, a Tactician can only perform one Tactical Action per turn. Therefore in this case, use of his ability does "use up" Nakano's Tactician for the turn.
