Airbend is a keyword action. To airbend a permanent or a spell, you exile it. As long as that card remains exiled, its owner may cast it by paying rather than paying its mana cost. This doesn't change when that card can be cast. If you airbend a creature that an opponent owns during your turn, they'll usually have to wait until their next turn to cast it again.
View all 0 Airbend cardsWhen you earthbend, choose target land you control. As the earthbend ability resolves, that land becomes a 0/0 creature with haste that's still a land. Then put +1/+1 counters on it equal to the earthbend number. Because the new creature land will have haste, you can feel free to earthbend lands that you just played.

You don't lose this mana during that combat. Any of this mana you still have as combat ends will be lost. You won't have it during your second main phase.
View all 0 Firebending cardsTo pay a waterbend cost, you can always just pay the requested mana. However, for each {1} in that cost, you can tap an untapped artifact or creature you control rather than pay that mana. If you choose to tap a creature to help pay a waterbend cost, it can be one that just came under your control that turn.

If it has any abilities or flavor text in addition to its chapter abilities, those abilities and flavor text will be in a separate part of its text box under its type line. Saga creatures aren't on the battlefield for a long time, but they can make a devastating impact in their short time with you.

They usually have an easy way to remember that they've been activated, though, whether that's putting a counter on the permanent with the ability or creating a tricked-out token. If a permanent with an exhaust ability that's already been activated leaves the battlefield and then returns, it's a new object with a new instance of its exhaust ability. That exhaust ability can be activated.
