Actually, no. When you're playing a creature with exploit, you gotta sacrifice another one of your minions on the battlefield. It’s like throwing a party and not being able to eat your own cake. You need at least one other creature to make the exploit ability work.

Short answer: No. A creature with exploit can't sacrifice itself. It's all about the teamwork, even if that means one of the team doesn't make it.

Nope, a creature can't exploit itself in MTG. Exploit is a keyword ability that allows you to sacrifice another creature when the creature with exploit enters the battlefield. Key word here is 'another,' so the creature with exploit can't target itself for the sacrificial lambs' role.
