Sacrifice a creature: Scry 1. (Look at the top card of your library. You may put that card on the bottom of your library.)
If you sacrifice an attacking or blocking creature during the declare blockers step, it won't deal combat damage. If you wait until the combat damage step, but that creature is dealt lethal damage, it'll be destroyed before you get a chance to sacrifice it.
You can sacrifice Viscera Seer to activate its own ability.
