Rulings

Official rulings from Wizards of the Coast (10).

• 2026-03-20Any choices made when the spell resolves won't have been made yet when it's copied. Any such choices will be made separately when the copy resolves.
• 2026-03-20If a spell with a converge ability is copied, no mana was spent to cast the copy, so the number of colors of mana spent to cast the spell will be zero. The number of colors spent to cast the original spell is not copied.
• 2026-03-20A resolving copy of a permanent spell becomes a token. That token isn't "created" and won't interact with abilities that care about tokens being created.
• 2026-03-20If you cast your first spell with {X} in its mana cost during a turn before Owlin Spiralmancer is on the battlefield, casting another spell with {X} in its mana cost later in the turn won't cause its last ability to trigger.
• 2026-03-20If the spell that's copied is modal (that is, it says "Choose one —" or the like), the copy will have the same mode or modes. You can't choose different ones.
• 2026-03-20The copy will have the same targets as the spell it's copying unless you choose new ones. You may change any number of the targets, including all of them or none of them. If, for one of the targets, you can't choose a new legal target, then it remains unchanged (even if the current target is illegal).
• 2026-03-20The copy is created on the stack, so it's not "cast." Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell won't trigger.
• 2026-03-20If the copied spell divides damage or distributes counters among a number of targets, the division and number of targets can't be changed. If you choose new targets, you must choose the same number of targets.
• 2026-03-20If the spell that's copied has an X whose value was determined as it was cast, the copy has the same value of X.
• 2026-03-20You can't choose to pay any additional costs for a copied spell. However, effects based on any additional costs that were paid for the original spell are copied as though those same costs were paid for the copy too.
