Human Torch’s pre-fight ability

So I have a question about Human Torch’s pre-fight ability. Can this only be used in quests? I don’t see an option for using it in Incursions and don’t recall seeing it in Battlegrounds and haven’t used him as an attacker yet in AW and AQ.

And in BG, you only have limited number of seconds in which to get to it and activate it, before countdown timer times out and starts the fight.
