As we can read here: http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/uncharted-realms/no-end-and-no-beginning-2015-02-11, Daghatar the Adamant has choose to forsake the clan's long-time tradition of calling their ancestor to their side to battle, which is seen by Dromoka, the Eternal as a form of Necromancy, and she despise it. All in attempt to make peace between the Abzan House and the Dromoka brood.
Since there will be no more spirit-speaking magic, will the Abzan be a magicless brutes or will they employ a new magic? As always, the lore in MTG is fascinating to read.
Tasigur felt death descending on him, blotting out the light of the sun. He fell to his knees and planted his hands in the mud. Death, the death of all things, the end of the Sultai and the end of the world, were all embodied in this magnificent scaled god. Not daring to lift his head, he watched his hands as the earth slowly swallowed them up.

Oh. I mistaked the "he watched his hands swallowed up by the earth" as meaning he died, like it was saying 'there go his hands, now for the rest of the body!'

He is almost certainly dead. It's written like he's almost certainly dead, but his actual death is not explicitly stated. That's all.

And by what I read he gave slugmar the throne showing he's stepping down as "golden fang" and giving that rite to slugmar, he's not just giving him a golden chair his giving him rule over the sultai
