Absolutely, you have to declare attackers. It's not a choose-your-own-adventure book where you can skip to the good parts. Declaring attackers is how you officially start the smackdown, and your opponent needs to know who's coming at them to plan their defense or any sneaky instant spells they've got up their sleeve.

Yup, declaring your attackers in Magic The Gathering is a must-do part of the combat phase. You can't just sneak your creatures into a fight without letting your opponent know who's swinging their way. It's like saying, 'Heads up, your planeswalker is about to get a visit.' This step is crucial because it gives your opponent the chance to respond with blockers or spells.

Nah, just surprise attack them, much more fun! Jk, ofc you have to declare them. It's a rule, and MTG takes its rules very seriously.

You gotta declare attackers. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. It's part of the game's structure and keeps things fair and strategic.
