Forum:Theinen and Two-Pronged Attack/Kuraz the Light Monarch: Missing the Timing?

Okay, say I have Andro Sphinx and Sphinx Teleia on the field, and I use Two-Pronged Attack or Kuraz the Light Monarch to destroy both of them. Two-Pronged Attack also destroys 1 monster the opponent controls, while Kuraz lets you draw for the cards destroyed, but in both cases, they activate and resolve simultaneously with the cards of yours they destroy (so, in this case, both Sphinxes and the opponent's monster will be destroyed at the same time with Two-Pronged Attack, and both Sphinxes will be destroyed at the same time you draw cards).

Now, Theinen the Great Sphinx's summoning effect is optional, so it CAN miss the timing, if activated in the middle of a card chain, or if the other Sphinx monsters being destroyed aren't the last thing that happens, when a card effect resolves (I learned this the hard way when I tried using Thunder Crash to trigger the summoning of Theinen). So, if both Sphinx monsters are destroyed by a card effect that also has a secondary effect that resolves at the same time (like Two-Pronged Attack or Kuraz), would Theinen miss the timing? 66.228.109.2 20:37, October 16, 2009 (UTC)
