Zoyowa Lava-Tongue - Decend ability not triggering
I had Zoyowa out on the battle field along with four other cards.
In one turn, my opponent killed my Gold-Forged Thopteryx. And in the next turn, he killed my Kutzil, Malamet Exemplar. Both sent to my graveyard. But neither time was the Descend ability triggered at all.
Why not? It should have, right?
Here's a list (and a pic) of what my opponent had out on the battlefield:
- Botanical Brawler
- Juniper Order Rootweaver
- Arwen, Mortal Queen
- Enduring Bondwarden
- Siege Veteran
- Legion of Clay
Nothing seems like it would counter or stop that ability.
Tell me what I'm missing here. It seems straightforward.

Both creatures were destroyed during the combat phase in my turn.

Did your opponent remove your creatures during YOUR turn, BEFORE the end step? If not, Zoyowa doesn't trigger. Removing your creature in the end step means, that at the beginning of the end step, no permanent card has entered your graveyard yet, so no trigger.
