Deathtouch At the beginning of your end step, if you descended this turn, each opponent may discard a card or sacrifice a permanent of their choice. Zoyowa deals 3 damage to each opponent who didn't. (You descended if a permanent card was put into your graveyard from anywhere.)

Rulings (7)

An opponent with zero cards in hand can't choose to discard a card. Similarly, an opponent with no permanents can't choose to sacrifice a permanent.

A permanent card is an artifact, battle, creature, enchantment, land, or planeswalker card. Tokens are not cards, and while tokens are put into the graveyard before ceasing to exist, that action doesn't count as a player having descended.

Some cards refer to the number of times a player descended this turn. Those cards care about the number of permanent cards put into that player's graveyard from anywhere this turn.
