Asmodeus & The Golden Throne

Asked by irmsilver 1 year ago

Asmodeus the Archfiend has and activated ability "{B}{B}{B}: Draw seven cards."

The Golden Throne has a mana ability of "{T}, Sacrifice a creature: Add three mana of any combination of colors".

Can I activate Asmodeus' ability to draw seven cards by sacrificing himself to The Golden Throne?

Yes, once you activate the ability it gets put on the stack(602.2a), after a few things that are irrelevant in this situation(601.2b-f), you have the chance to activate mana abilities(601.2g) like The Golden Throne, since Asmodeus the Archfiends ability is already on the stack it doesn't matter what zone the card itself is in, finally you pay the cost(601.2h) and the ability is officially activated(601.2i).
