Official rulings

  1. If you cast this card for its evoke cost, you may put the sacrifice trigger and the regular enters-the-battlefield trigger on the stack in either order. The one put on the stack last will resolve first. (2013-04-15)
  2. Aethersnipe can be the target of its own ability. If it's the only nonland permanent on the battlefield, it must be the target of its ability. (2018-12-07)
