Tymaret, the Murder King 2nd ability
Asked by 003989426 11 years ago
will activating Tymaret, the Murder King 2nd ability and sacrificing himself put him into the graveyard and then into your hand? or can it only be cast from the graveyard?

According to the rules, it CAN be played while he is on the battlefield.
112.6b An ability that states which zones it functions in functions only from those zones.
Tymaret's second ability does not state that it can only be activated while he is in the graveyard. Furthermore:
112.6k An ability whose cost or effect specifies that it moves the object it's on out of a particular zone functions only in that zone, unless that ability's trigger condition, or a previous part of that ability's cost or effect, specifies that the object is put into that zone.

Tymaret's last ability can be activated only if Tymaret is in your graveyard. Notably, Tymaret can't be sacrificed to return itself.
This can be found on the official Theros Release Notes, found here

Ah, okay. Thank you. I was Google-ing for answers everywhere and found nothing saying otherwise. If the High Council says you can't...then you can't. Thanks Denial. =)

It can only be activated when Tymaret is in the graveyard.
