Rulings

2008-05-01

If the ability is activated after the current turn’s End step has begun, the creature won’t be sacrificed until the next turn’s End step.

2008-05-01

If you put a creature onto the battlefield and a different player takes control of it before the end of the turn, you can’t sacrifice it at end of turn. It will remain on the battlefield. It will have haste as long as it’s on the battlefield.
