Gameplay

Legendary Creature — Elemental Villain

Whenever you cast a blue spell, if Hydro-Man is a creature, he gets +1/+1 until end of turn. At the beginning of your end step, untap Hydro-Man. Until your next turn, he becomes a land and gains "{T}: Add {U}." (He's not a creature during that time.)

The effect of Hydro-Man's last ability ends as your turn begins. There is no opportunity to tap Hydro-Man for {U} once your turn has started.
