Mana Reflections. Doubles production of mana sources. The text, as written, of Caged Sun, Gauntlets of Power, etc state 'When the land is tapped the controller adds one mana to their mana pool (in addition to what the land produces.)' So the additional is a triggered ability, NOT part of the mana ability. So a Forest with MR and Gauntlets (Green) will produce 3 Green, not 4?

Triggered mana abilities like Caged Sun, Gauntlet of Power, etc. just add additional mana when you activate other mana abilities. They don’t increase the amount of mana that the land actually produces, so Mana Reflection won’t double this mana.

I have 6 life my opponent has 8. I activate Pyrohemia and in response activate it 7 more times. Each activation resolves separately, so when I hit 0 life, do the other two activations resolve or do they fizzle leaving my opponent at 2 life?

They neither resolve nor fizzle. Once you’re at 0 life, you lose the game before the remaining activations can resolve. If it’s a duel, then the game is over and your opponent wins. If it’s a multiplayer game, then the other activations are removed from the stack because you’re no longer in the game.

How do phytohydra and hot soup interact? Will I be able to put on counters without having to destroy phytohydra or will both triggers happen destroying it regardless of order they resolve?

Damage is never dealt to Phytohydra, so Hot Soup’s ability can never trigger here.

Just want to clarify the current legend rule. I CAN have two legendary creatures that reference the same character on the battlefield at any time? Example: Rhys the Exiled & Rhys the Redeemed. But not two identical Rhys the Redeemed's, otherwise I will need to sacrifice one as a state based effect. Correct? Additionally, I canNOT have two of a Planeswalker that share a subtype on the battlefield at the same time? Example: Liliana of the Dark Realms & Liliana Vess.

Correct on both counts.
