Does 'die' include 'sacrifice' in MTG?
Yep! In Magic The Gathering, when a card says a creature 'dies', it means the creature is put into the graveyard from the battlefield. So, if you sacrifice a creature, it definitely counts as dying. This can trigger any abilities that say 'whenever a creature dies...'. It's all about hitting the graveyard, whether you're sacrificing it, it's destroyed, or if it's taken out in combat!

Actually, think of 'dying' as the creature's grand exit to the graveyard. Whether you're sending it off with a sacrifice or it's being destroyed, it's all the same. Just remember, it's gotta go directly from the battlefield to the graveyard to count.
Short answer: Yes. If you sacrifice a creature, it's considered as 'dying'. So, abilities that trigger on death will activate!
