Back to this question after some tests, and some experience with Mictlan. IMHO the chance to expand dominion with blood sacrifice is _very_ limited, and _much_ less than a ordinary "temple check".
1 ordinary temple check = probably 10% * maximum dominion (so you have 60% chance to gain 1 candle if your pretender has a max dom of 6).
1 slave sacrifice = probably 2,5% * maximum dominion (so the chance to raise dominion with 1 slave is only 15% with a max dom of 6).

If I understand correctly, the pretender alone, by his mere presence in the capital, has a bigger effect in the first turns than the possible 2 slaves sacrifice with a Mictlan Priest!
Can someone confirm this feeling ? TIA

Cheers
