Hi, I top deck a Sling-Gang Lieutenant then cast it. Opponent use cast down on the lieutenant. Can I respond to the cast down by sacrificing the two tokens and the lieutenant itself to drain 3 life from the opponent and gain 3 life for myself?
No. Once the Lieutenant enters the battlefield the ability to create two tokens triggers and both players get a chance to respond before it resolves. If they cast down before it resolves there will be no goblins to sacrifice. They can however sacrifice just the lietenant to deal 1 damage and then trigger will resolve leaving them with just two goblin tokens.
