| Jan 6, 2019 at 18:16 | comment | added | GendoIkari | @DrunkCynic Not sure I see what you are saying... it already specifies that they can't use them "during their main phase", and to "cast something other than an instant". | |

| Jan 5, 2019 at 23:56 | comment | added | Tom | Thanks so much Gendolkari... I had a look at the rules further last night and as @ikegami said, at the end of each step a players mana pool empties. So I get that they have a chance to respond to me tapping 4 of their mana before they do, however if they tap the mana themselves they wont be able to use it during their main phase to play mana spell/abilities. And yes... the specific card im talking about is [mtg:Elder Deep-Fiend] | |
