Garrote vs. Reform [LSJ]

[Brian Reed]

If a tapped vampire is burned via a Garrote, does he have a chance to play
Reform Body as a combat card? If not, can he untap and play it as a
reaction card?

Thanks,
Brian

Garrote
Melee Weapon
Strike: Strength damage, only usable at close range. If the opposing vampire
goes into torpor during the strike resolution step of this strike and the
bearer remains ready, the bearer may burn this card to burn the opposing
vampire. This is not considered diablrie.

Reform Body
This card can be played as a combat card or a reaction card.
Only usable by a vampire being burned. This vampire goes to torpor instead.
May be played by a vampire in torpor.
Superior: As above, and this vampire gains 2 blood from the blood bank.

Yes. If a vampire is burned in combat by any means, he can play Reform Body
(assuming he has Vic). (card text)
