During the recent Foundations errata, all cards that made other players sacrifice something had the clause “of their choice” added as a nonfunctional change that clarifies the sacrifice process. Cruel Edict and Tribute to Hunger are good examples of this errata.

However, Michiko Konda received errata to say “of your choice”:

Whenever a source an opponent controls deals damage to you, that player sacrifices a permanent of your choice.

Previously the text ended at “sacrifices a permanent.”

This template means the player that controls Michiko Konda chooses what is sacrificed, instead of the player sacrificing things. This would represent a significant buff over the previous template and is almost certainly an error made during the errata process.

This fix is essentially a one-word change: swap “your” to “their”.

Michiko Konda appears to be the only card affected this way.
