If it is the owner, then upon activating, the card will go to his graveyard, since sacrificing it is part of the activation cost
Still, the cost in terms of occupied sideboard slots is big and I recommend going for Ancient Grudge + Stomping Ground only if you expect to see a lot of artifact decks, mainly Hammer it should give you a lot of percentage points in the matchup
