Maybe in Adana, a low-rarity troop whose spell says “drain my mana. One ally gains X mana”, where X is the cost of the spell. Maybe could be boosted by transforming a color to make it more useful. Right now the only troop I know of that directly gives mana is Sunweaver.

Would be an ideal candidate for “Empowered” trait as well

Or perhaps a hero weapon?

Prismatic Manawell  
Mana Cost:20 Red Blue Green Purple Brown Yellow  
Unlocks at ALL Mastery 75  
Ally gains 20 mana. Gain an extra turn

So you stick hero in 4th slot to catch all extra mana, then use it to power other troops. Extra turn so you can cast them at once.

I feel like that may not happen due to it requiring no board manipulation. Destroy 1 gem, row, column, and combinations of those are kind of the game’s form of doing what you just said. It would be nice to see troops that have a mana poll higher than their mana cost to cast.

Adana  
Legendary  
Color: All 6  
Mana Pool: 36  
Mana Cost: 18 (if mana is higher than 18, it does not use that mana)  
Stats would be similar to that of Fortress Gate, but having much more armor than it does HP and with lower magic than Gate.  
Spell: Gives a troop (Magic) mana boosted by unused mana (1:3), give that troop +2 magic, gain an extra turn if 10 or more yellow gems are on the board.

Traits:  
Construct Bond: +2 HP to all construct  
Reinforced: +1 armor regen at start of turn  
Mana Accumulation: Gains +5 mana at the start of each turn.
