Official Rulings (10)
If you pay the blitz cost to cast a creature spell, that permanent will be sacrificed only if itβs still on the battlefield when that triggered ability resolves. If it dies or goes to another zone before then, it will stay where it is.
If a creature enters the battlefield as a copy of or becomes a copy of a creature whose blitz cost was paid, the copy wonβt have haste, wonβt be sacrificed, and its controller wonβt draw a card when it dies.
If you choose to pay the blitz cost rather than the mana cost, youβre still casting the spell. It goes on the stack and can be responded to and countered. You can cast a creature spell for its blitz cost only if you could cast that creature spell. Most of the time, this means during your main phase when the stack is empty.
The triggered ability that lets the creatureβs controller draw a card triggers when it dies for any reason, not just when you sacrifice it during the end step.
You donβt have to attack with the creature with blitz unless another ability says you do.
