Tapping lands during combat phase before attackers announced
With Ozai in the game, and caring how much tapped unspent mana there is before attacking such that he has flying and indestructible, the game sees no abilities or spells pay for, so it auto goes to combat and begins attacks. When selecting attackers, unable to taps lands to change the amount of unspent mana. Should add the ability to taps lands before or during attack select

Unless you have anything that cares about Ozai having flying and indestructible as he is being declared as attacker, there is no reason to get that mana into your mana pool before declaring attackers. The ability is a static one and comes online as soon as there is 6 or more unspend mana in your mana pool. Not a trigger, no delay, it happens right away. Just get that mana before blockers are being declared so that he has flying.
You could set a stop to beginning of combat to float mana before declaring attackers.
You CANNOT use mana abilities during attacker declaration, unless some effect, like Ghostly Prison, demands a mana payment for declaring attackers. That is how the rules work, not a quirk of Arena.
