Can you sacrifice tokens before they die to Virulent Plague?
Asked by Argy 8 years ago
The scenario is that my Oppont has Virulent Plague on the field and I have Spirit Bonds and Monastery Mentor.
I cast a Lightning Strike, which Creates a Token due to the Mentor's ability.
Can I sacrifice this token using Spirit Bonds' ability before the Token is killed by Virulent Plague?
Thanks for any help.
Thanks for that.
I still need to get my head around the idea of static abilities.

Note that static abilities apply all of the time, not just when a player would get priority.

No afraid you can't. Virulent plague has a static ability, which is applied whenever a player would gain priority. In order to sacrifice a token, you'd have to have priority, and the token would have already gone to the graveyard.
