So, I was playing a casual game on cockatrice, and I had out two legendary creatures... I was told I had to sacrifice them both because I had two out... What's the rule on this??
if there are two of the SAME legendary creature (2 cards with the legendary supertype and same name) they are both sent to the grave.
Thanks
Rule 704.5k I think
Unless you have {Mirror Gallery}, legendary creatures with the same exact name are sacrificed when more than one of it exists on the battlefield.

well sacrificed isn't the exact word, they just die.

Thanks for the correction, scars.
Say my opponent has {random legendary creature} and I cast {phantismal image} as a copy of it. They will both die but before it dies can I still sacrifice it for my benefit and kill their legendary.?
^^clone effects put both cards into the graveyard.

I'm not understanding why you'd sacrifice your own creature. But im pretty sure that it's not an ETB trigger, just put into the graveyard. Since its not a trigger, doesn't use stack, meaning you couldn't sacrifice in response.

Ok I clone your legendary creature to kill yours because it's the only removal I have. I also have sacrifice a creature and I get xxxxxx bonus. That's why. I kill your creature and sacrifice mine for a benefit.
They both die the next time a player gets priority, before they can do anything.
Thanks that's what I thought.
They still trigger morbid so you could follow it up with something has morbid
