If an effect creates multiple copies of an instant or sorcery spell, magecraft abilities trigger once for each copy created by the effect.

The Blood Avatar will be awakened even if no player has creatures to sacrifice when it resolves.

2021-04-16

Awaken the Blood Avatar’s first ability can’t reduce its cost below . However, you can sacrifice any number of creatures, even if they won’t reduce its cost any further.

Then all the chosen creatures are sacrificed at the same time.
