Official rulings

3 rulings · in English, source Scryfall

If you have two Lords of the Pit, you can sacrifice them to each other.

2017-11-17 · Wizards of the Coast

If you control any other creatures as Lord of the Pit’s triggered ability resolves, you must sacrifice one. You can’t choose to be dealt 7 damage instead.

2017-11-17 · Wizards of the Coast

If Lord of the Pit has gained lifelink, being dealt 7 damage by it doesn’t cause your life total to change, even though you gain and lose life. If your life total is less than 7, you won’t lose the game.
