Official rulings

8 rulings · in English, source Scryfall

If a card or ability instructs your opponent to put cards into their hand without specifically using the word "draw," it's not a card drawn.

2025-10-02 · Wizards of the Coast

If a waterbend cost is part of the total cost to cast a spell or activate an ability, you may tap an untapped artifact or creature you control rather than pay one generic mana in that total cost any number of times up to a maximum of the amount of generic mana in the waterbend component of that total cost.

The last ability can trigger only once each turn for each opponent. It doesn't matter whether The Unagi of Kyoshi Island was on the battlefield when the first card was drawn. If it's not on the battlefield when the second card is drawn, the ability can't trigger at all that turn. It won't trigger when the third or fourth card is drawn.

2025-10-02 · Wizards of the Coast

Even if the cost of the spell or ability that waterbend is part of increases or decreases, you still may only tap artifacts or creatures to pay for costs up to the amount of the generic mana in the waterbend cost.

2025-10-02 · Wizards of the Coast

"Waterbend [cost]" means "Pay [cost]. For each generic mana in that cost, you may tap an untapped artifact or creature you control rather than pay that mana."

2025-10-02 · Wizards of the Coast

If an effect instructs your opponent to draw multiple cards, the ability triggers after they draw whichever is the second one for the turn. It goes on the stack after they've drawn and looked at all the cards and finished resolving the spell or ability that caused them to draw cards.

2025-10-02 · Wizards of the Coast

If an artifact or creature you control has a mana ability with {T} in the cost, activating that ability while casting a spell or activating an ability with waterbend will result in the artifact or creature being tapped before you pay the spell's costs. You won't be able to tap it again for waterbend. Similarly, if you sacrifice an artifact or creature to activate a mana ability to pay a cost with waterbend, that artifact or creature won't be on the battlefield when you pay the spell's costs, so you won't be able to tap it for waterbend.

2025-10-02 · Wizards of the Coast

You can tap any untapped creature or artifact you control to pay a waterbend cost, even one you haven't controlled continuously since the beginning of your most recent turn.
