Notes and Rules Information for Power Sink:
- Does not increase the mana cost of the spell. It just requires a separate expenditure in order for it to succeed. (2004-10-04)
- When this spell resolves, you either pay X mana or let your lands become tapped. The lands that become tapped are not “tapped for mana”. If you choose to pay, you may pay the X mana using whatever mana abilities you want to use. (2004-10-04)
- Only lands that actually have mana abilities will get tapped. This includes basic lands and lands with mana abilities printed on them, as well as lands which have been granted a mana ability by some effect. (2010-03-01)
