-A card that has been ''sacrificed'' is in a state distinct from the ''in play'' and ''not in play'' states. A card ''sacrificed'' ceases to exist for all intents and purposes for the remainder of the game. ''Sacrificed'' cards are ''not'' placed in the Graveyard. They are to be placed in a pile more distant from the game, since there will be no interaction with them while playing.

-There is a huge difference between ''cards not in play'' and ''sacrificed cards '': Cards not in play are still a part of the game and might come into play at some point. Cards in hand or in the deck or even in the grave are examples of cards not in play. In contrast, cards that have been sacrificed may ''never'' in any way become part of the current game.
