For the record: #MTG players are required to announce triggers of the cards they control. You cannot, for example, remain silent about your Charismatic Conqueror when your opponents play a creature or artifact, and hope they forget about its trigger. You have to say something like "Charismatic Conqueror trigger?" or "Do you tap your creature or artifact?" or "Do I get a token?" If you instead remain silent and hope your opponent forgets about it, and let them play their creature or artifact untapped, and then wait until they pass their turn - you have missed your trigger. You do not get to say "haha! you forgot my trigger, now I get a token!" You get nothing. You also cannot forbid your opponents from reminding each other about your trigger. Players can if they want to, but you yourself are required. It's not only an illegal play and cheating,* it's a slime-ball move. Don't be a slime-ball. (Yes, this happened in a pod I played in this weekend.) *see MTG tournament rules section 4.5: https://media.wizards.com/ContentResources/WPN/MTG_MTR_2025_Apr%2021_EN.pdf #MagicTheGathering
