Living death with a sac outlet
Asked by captain_deano 3 years ago
Hello! So let’s say I cast Living Death with 3 non-token creatures and a sac outlet (ex. Grimgrin, Corpse-Born on the field. I sac the three non-token creatures to the sac outlet in response to casting living death, my question is will the creatures saced to the outlet come back when living death resolves?

just out of curiosity, why would you think this might "not" work? i don't want to make assumptions about the gaps in your mtg knowledge like Rhadamanthus did.

Ok thanks! The reason I ask is because I wasn’t sure if living death saw the creatures in the graveyard when it’s cast or when it’s resolved

Yes, that works the way you want it to. Since Living Death doesn't specifically target any of the things it affects, that means it waits until it starts resolving to determine what it will affect. Any creature cards in the graveyard (and any creatures on the battlefield) at the time it starts resolving will be affected, even if they weren't there yet at the time the spell was cast and put onto the stack.
