rulings

• 2019-05-03Mayhem Devil itself doesn't allow any player to sacrifice any permanents. Its ability triggers whenever a player sacrifices a permanent because some other spell, ability, or cost instructed the player to do so.
• 2019-05-03You control Mayhem Devil's triggered ability and choose the target, no matter who sacrificed the permanent.
• 2019-05-03If you sacrifice Mayhem Devil, its ability triggers.
• 2019-05-03A legendary permanent that is put into a graveyard because of the "legend rule" isn't sacrificed.
• 2019-05-03If a permanent is sacrificed to pay a cost of a spell or ability, Mayhem Devil's ability will resolve before that spell or ability.
