Choose Your Fight

May be played even if there is already a Terrain at the current Battlefield. Battle: Choose your performing Tactician: Destroy all other Terrains in play. Draw a card.

Thx in advance

Can i play Choose Your Fight even if there are no other terrains in play at the current battlefiel to play it and draw a card?

Note that the card says, "May be played even if there is already a Terrain at the current Battlefield." Not, Can only be played" or something similar. It's an option to override a rule.

As for whether one effect occurs if another can't:
