Would Anyone Run This Card?

When this Set card is destroyed by a card effect: select one monster your opponent controls; destroy it, then your opponent takes 700 points of damage. When this Set card is destroyed by battle: you can destroy up to 2 Spell/Trap cards on the field; then your opponent takes 500 points of damage.

Lore Correction:

 

If this card is destroyed by a card effect while it is in face-down Defense Position: Target one monster your opponent controls and destroy it; inflict 700 points of damage to your opponent's Life Points. If this card is destroyed by battle while it is in face-down Defense Position: You can destroy up to 2 Spell or Trap Cards on the field; Inflict 500 points of damage to your opponent's Life Points.

 

Well, I'm not so good at the OCG correction thing.

 

But yeah, this is pretty useful for an effect monster. It's like a FLIP effect but instead of flipping it just activates. But I have one question about the second effect, I don't think the second effect would activate at all since it needs to be Set or face-down Defense Position when it gets destroyed to be activated, but in battle, the monster card gets flipped face-up defense position before the damage calculation applies. So, maybe correct it in some way? Like, When this card is destroyed in Defense Position?

Yes, I would run it because it's overpowered.

The first effect is good, since it's activation is not easy, you could have even make it be a little stronger, maybe 1000 damage. But the second is  a lot too strong. It's is more or less just a very strong Flip Effect, because it sure gets destroyed when it is attacked. Maybe only destroy 1 Spell/Trap Card and without the damage.

And I think SerooChan is right, the wording of the second one needs to be changed. Maybe something like that: "When this card is destroyed by battle, after this Set card was attacked by an opponent's monster: ..."
