Question about missing the timing

[Darkteutonic]

Hello everyone,

 

I am not sure if this is the right section to ask this question (I apologize in advance if it is not - if it isn't, would anyone be kind enough to point me in the right direction - Thank you in advance).

I am creating a monster part of the Vampire archetype called Vampire God Camazotz, and one of its effect is the following;

 

During either player's turn, when this card is targeted by a card effect, or Tributed, you can (Quick Effect): Immediately after that effect resolve, banish this card.

So a little bit of context my goals are;

 

1- I would like to be able to combo the card Vampire Red Baron effect which is;

 

You can pay 1000 LP; then target 1 monster your opponent controls and 1 other "Vampire" (I would target Vampire God Camazotz) monster you control; switch control of those monsters.

 

With Vampire God Camazotz effect so that the result would be of taking control of 1 of my opponent monster and then as soon as the control have been switch, my Vampire God Camazotz banish itself.

 

2- I want to be able to use Vampire God Camazotz effect to banish itself , if my opponent tribute it to special summon a "Kaiju" monster.

 

So my question is: Does the effect of my Card (Vampire God Camazotz), written as is, able to accomplish both of the above goals ? Or would it be missing the timing ?

Thank you in advance for taking the time.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your day!

Quick Effects can't miss the timing, as they are activated in response to something happening. I think your confusion here is that the first scenario would be a Quick Effect in response to the activation of Vampire Red Baron's effect, where the second scenario is more so a Trigger Effect scenario, which would happen after resolving the Chain, or in this case, the Special Summon of the Kaiju, which doesn't use the Chain.

 

Simply put, your effect works as intended, since you are still activating in response to an effect for one scenario, which would be required due to the synergy of Vampire Red Baron and your card, and able to work off of Tributed as well, since Quick Effects cannot miss the timing regardless.

 

As a personal suggestion though, I would split the effects up instead, since Tributing like that would almost always be in a situation where a Trigger Effect would be more appropriate than a Quick Effect, but I understand that having two separate lines just to banish the card seems silly, but YGO is already weird and complex, and there are certain things that most will understand, so I would say this instead:
"When this card is targeted by a card or effect, you can (Quick Effect): Immediately after that effect resolves, banish this card. If this card is Tributed: You can banish this card."

@@Zaziuma Thank you very much for your detailed answer. I appreciate it. And Thank you for the suggestion, I am already considering changing it to 2 effects, althought not sold on it completely yet.

Also relating to the the link to the ruling question you provided, am I still allowed to post in it? When I checked it a few second ago, there is a red band/line at the top and bottom of the page, and it is written in it;

Necrobump!

I wouldn't worry to much about that in that specific post, since it's a thread that has existed for quite a while. The reason why the warning is there is because this forum has not been getting as much traction as it tends to, so people don't posts as much in threads like that. If you're still worried, you can always ask an admin about it though.
