Rulings
3 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2019-01-25
You can activate the ability of Priest of Forgotten Gods without choosing any targets if you wish. You'll still add and draw a card.
- 2019-01-25
Because it may have targets, the ability of Priest of Forgotten Gods isn't a mana ability. It uses the stack and can be responded to, even if no targets were chosen.
- 2019-01-25
You may target players who can't sacrifice a creature. Those players still lose 2 life.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.
