Can you choose not to pay cumulative upkeep in MTG?
Absolutely, you can choose not to pay the cumulative upkeep cost for a card in MTG. When you don't, the game punishes you by forcing you to sacrifice the card. It's like the game's way of saying, 'If you can't keep up with the rent, you're out!' So, you've got to weigh if keeping that card around is worth the steadily increasing cost. Just imagine it getting more expensive the longer it hangs around - like a bad roommate who eats all your food.

Short answer: Yes, but it'll cost ya the card. Kinda like saying, 'I don't wanna pay this bill,' and then your service gets cut.
Choosing not to pay cumulative upkeep is a strategic move sometimes. I had this card, Mystic Remora, which has a tiny initial upkeep that balloons quickly. Early in the game, it's a powerhouse for drawing cards. But as the game goes on, paying that upkeep feels like paying for a golden yacht. So, I let it go when it stopped being worth it. It's all about balancing costs vs. benefits, folks.
