Will Hardened Scales effect Mazirek triggers if it's sacrificed?

Asked by TheRavenOne 1 month ago

I had Mazirek, Kraul Death Priest and Hardened Scales on the battlefield. Then I cast Wave of Vitriol forcing my opponents to sacrifice and also make myself sacrifice the Hardened Scales. Would Hardened Scales see itself and the other permanents effected be sacrificed, and would I get its replacement effect on the following Mazirek triggers? Wondering that if a card like Teysa Karlov can double death triggers even if it itself dies, would this not work in a similar way?

Hardened Scales can 'see' itself and all other things dying simultaneously die, that's correct. But unfortunately unlike Teysa, this doesn't matter, because the Hardened Scales needs to still be on the battlefield for its replacement effect to apply to the ability. It's not enough for it to just have been there when the ability triggered.
