While your side has not yet deployed a block with a card in that battle. You may deploy any number of leaders free in a row, each scoring Impact and giving the +1 same-daimyo bonus to later blocks. Once a card has been used to deploy, every later leader needs a matching card. Deploying a leader is not passing.
