Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord's ability

Asked by ZarBluestar 11 years ago

Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord 's ability doesn't say to sacrifice a creature you control. Does that mean that I could sacrifice other player's creatures? follow up question, in a two headed giant, could I sac my partner's creatures? Thanks.

701.13a 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.

I don't know about two headed giant

It wouldn't work in 2HG either, as you don't control your ally's creatures, only your own.

The only difference in Two-Headed Giant is that you and your partner both share a life total. Otherwise it's considered another player.

You couldn't sacrifice your opponents creature, so you can't sacrifice your ally's creature unless your card said, "Sacrifice Target Creature" which I am sure would be a $150,000 card lol
