Wenn Du dies tust, muß der verteidigende Spieler alles Mana aus seinen Ländern ziehen. Danach wird sein Manavorrat geleert. Erhöhe Deinen Manavorrat nach dem Kampf um farbloses Mana in gleicher Höhe.

2013-04-15A mana ability is an ability that (1) isn't a loyalty ability, (2) doesn't target, and (3) could add mana when it resolves.
2013-04-15An ability that triggers when something "attacks and isn't blocked" triggers in the declare blockers step after blockers are declared if (1) that creature is attacking and (2) no creatures are declared to block it. It will trigger even if that creature was put onto the battlefield attacking rather than having been declared as an attacker in the declare attackers step.
