Oh, Marctel, you were my silliest mistake. Originally, this card didn't say "if you cast it from your hand" which allowed the sacrificing player to keep sacrificing Marctel, keep choosing Marctel, and keep triggering Marctel until all the other creatures on the battlefield were dead, except Marctel.
That clearly wasn't the intent. And the person who first figured it out knew that couldn't be the case (thankfully, Marctel didn't end up in the hands of a munchkin).
