If Gatekeeper of Malikir forces me to sac a creature, can i into the roil the sac'd creature

Asked by Tetsuo 13 years ago

so if i have two creatures out and gatekeeper-of-malikir enters with the kicker paid can i Into the Roil the creature i choose to sac? or will the only time i have to respond with Into the Roil be when the gatekeeper is cast?

No matter what you do you will still have to sacrifice a creature when Gatekeeper of Malakir comes out kicking.

You do not sacrifice a creature until after Gatekeeper of Malakir 's ability resolves from the stack. It is too late for you to respond once a spell or ability resolves.

Gatekeeper of Malakir 's ability targets you not a creature you control. Therefore, when you Into the Roil a creature. Your other creature will still be sacrificed because you are still a legal target, the ability does not fizzle.
