Last Updated 7 March 2026<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This page serves as a quick reference for triggers in all Standard-legal sets that upgrade to a Warning when missed. For more information about any of the cards below or to learn more about our evaluation process, click the set titles to read the set-specific articles. Any card in Standard that does not<\/em> appear on this list is considered to have no triggers that upgrade when missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember that triggers only upgrade if the controller of the trigger owns the card that caused it. For example, if a player enchants their opponent’s creature with Clawing Torment<\/a>, that opponent will be responsible for putting the creature’s “you lose 1 life” trigger on the stack in their upkeep. But if they miss this trigger, they do not receive a Warning; simply apply the appropriate fix. Also remember that board state, available card pool, and deck archetypes are not factors in determining whether a trigger will upgrade when missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
