Now the user sacrifices as part of the cost, rather than the effect.

Hmm... doesn't feel super green at all...

Also, this ability is probably the strongest in the cycle, but it might be neater to have the cost be to exile a (or two) creature card from your graveyard, that would feel more green or at least black green rather than just mono black, and would also make it a little bit more powerful (unless you want the sacrifice synergy)

I'm very ok with this card either way tho.

Hmmm. A good point about the color issues. Perhaps this could grant a creature deathtouch instead.

That would be much safer in terms of both power level and color pie.

This breaks the color pie quite neatly. You wouldn't see this kind of edict effect on a monogreen card. Nothing about it. The other members of the cycle are either fine on the pie or in pie bending territory, but this one doesn't even straddle the line.

This is so far off the mark that this isn't even a {b/g} vs. {b}{g} issue. On any black-green card - even gold - I'd wonder why there is green in the cost of Innocent Blood.

Graveyard interactions seem more in the ballpark for this. Deathtouch I'd be wary of as well, but less so than an outright edict.

Maybe like a Disentomb then?

Or the triggered ability of Strength from the Fallen?
