About Severed Strands
Severed Strands, Sorcery, designed by Zack Stella first released in Oct, 2018 in the set Guilds of Ravnica and was printed exactly in 4 different ways.
Severed Strands would be beneficial in a sacrifice-themed deck that focuses on generating value from sacrificing creatures. It can provide removal and life gain in exchange for sacrificing a creature, which synergizes well with cards that benefit from sacrificing creatures like Mayhem Devil or Priest of Forgotten Gods. However, there are potentially better options like Vraska's Contempt, which offers unconditional removal without the need to sacrifice a creature, making it a more versatile choice in most situations. Whether Severed Strands should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergies of the deck, but it may not be a top-tier choice compared to other removal options available.
