Hylda of the Icy Crown and Angel's Trumpet

Asked by FatFreddiesCat 1 year ago

If I have Hylda of the Icy Crown Hylda of the Icy Crown and Angel's Trumpet Angel's Trumpet in play, will creatures being tapped by Angel's Trumpet trigger Hylda's abililties? In other words, By owning/controlling Angel's Trumpet, is it ME tapping untapped creatures an opponent controls or is it the artifact and NOT me?

Generally, you take all relevant actions. Angel's Trumpet instructs you to tap the appropriate creatures, so Hylda of the Icy Crown will trigger.

Most cards aren't self-aware enough to take actions on their own behalf.

To legendofa's last point, refer to the printed text of Floral Spuzzem for a silly example of poor templating.
