Yep! In the world of MTG, 'indestructible' means a creature can't be destroyed by damage or effects that say 'destroy.' However, if you're clever enough to make your opponent sacrifice that beefy indestructible creature, then it's adios to them! Sacrifice doesn't 'destroy' - it just neatly sidesteps that whole 'indestructible' thing.

Short answer: Yes. Sacrificing isn鈥檛 the same as destroying. So your opponent's indestructible creature can definitely be shown the door with a well-placed sacrifice effect.

Nah, sacrificing is totally different. Indestructible creatures think they're all tough until you sacrifice them. I've seen more than a few players shocked when their shiny indestructible creature gets bypassed with a simple sacrifice effect.
