Can i regenerate a sacrificed creature?
Asked by Lotacus 11 years ago
For example, say i have two Fling and i use one, i choose to sacrifice Grim Roustabout can i regenerate it and Fling a second time?
No.
701.14a To sacrifice a permanent, its controller moves it from the battlefield directly to its owners graveyard. A player cant sacrifice something that isnt a permanent, or something thats a permanent he or she doesnt control. Sacrificing a permanent doesnt destroy it, so regeneration or other effects that replace destruction cant affect this action.

No, you can't regenerate a sacrifice, regenerate will only stop a creature from being "destroyed", which means spells that say "destroy" ( Murder ) or effects that would deal lethal damage to creatures( Lightning Strike or combat damage),. Sacrificing doesn't use either of those effects.

No. Regeneration only prevents effects that specifically say "destroy" and lethal damage. It does not prevent sacrifice or -X/-X effects from killing the creature. Regenerating Grim Roustabout will not interact with sacrificing it, so you can't Fling it twice.
