Raze effect
Asked by felipemelies 7 years ago
Can i use Evolving wilds as a Sacrifice to play raze and then tap it to look for a basic land?
Yes, although for a slightly different reason. Sacrificing a land isn't part of the cost of Tremble, when it resolves you simply choose any land you control to sacrifice, but because sacrificing Evolving Wilds is a cost of activating its ability, it will be put into the graveyard as soon as you activate it and you won't control it when Tremble resolves.
The only card that I know of that does what you seem to be trying to do is Boom. You can cast it targeting your Evolving Wilds and then respond by activating the Evolving Wilds's ability. Since it's targeting a land that is not on the battlefield anymore, when Boom resolves that part of the card won't do anything but the rest of the spell will resolve normally and destroy your opponent's land.

Thanks for the answer.
I am building pauper land destroyer so Boom won't help, but thanks anyway.

Please link all cards in your question: Evolving Wilds, Raze.
No; sacrificing the Evolving Wilds is part of the cost of using its ability or playing Raze and in the same way that you can't use the same mana to pay for multiple spells, you can't sacrifice the same permanent to pay the cost for multiple spells and abilities.
