Blue spells you cast cost less to cast. If an opponent would mill one or more cards, they mill that many cards plus four instead. , : Each opponent mills cards equal to the number of cards in your hand.

If an opponent is instructed to put a card into their graveyard without using the word "mill," The Water Crystal's second ability doesn't apply.

Some older cards have received errata to instruct a player to mill cards rather than to put the top cards of their library into their graveyard. Use the Oracle™ card reference at Gatherer.Wizards.com to determine whether a specific card has received such errata. As a rule of thumb, if an effect instructs a player to look at or reveal a card before it's put into its owner's graveyard, it's unlikely to have received errata.

The cost reduction applies only to generic mana in the total cost of blue spells you cast.
