Do Tap for Mana Abilities Stack in MTG?
Absolutely, they do! If you tap a land (or any other card with a 'Tap: Add [mana symbol]' ability), it generates that mana immediately, which you can use to cast spells or activate abilities. There's no 'stack' for the mana itself like there is for spells and abilities that use the stack. Once you tap for mana, it's available to use right away and doesn't wait around for other things to resolve.

Nope, tapping for mana doesn't 'stack' in the way spells and abilities do. Mana generation is instantaneous and doesn't use the stack. You tap, you get mana, end of story. So, if you're in a pinch during a game, remember you can't wait to see if your opponent responds before deciding what to do with that mana.
Think of tapping for mana as flipping a switch to light up a room. The moment you flip it (tap for mana), the room lights up (you get the mana). No waiting in line for the light to turn on!
