Does sacrificing count as destroying in MTG?
Sacrificing ain't the same as destroying, no way. Think of it like quitting a job versus being fired. If you sacrifice a card, you're calling the shots. But if a card gets destroyed, it's because something else forced it out. Keeps things interesting!

Nope, sacrificing a card is definitely not the same as it being destroyed. In MTG, when you sacrifice something, you're the one choosing to yeet it off the field as part of a cost or effect. But when something's destroyed, that's usually because someone else is hitting it with a spell or effect that specifically says "destroy." So, if your creature has an ability that triggers when it's destroyed, sacrificing it won't trigger that ability.
Quick answer: No. Sacrificing is a choice, destroying is not.
