Official rulings
- A spell or ability that counters spells can still target Cragplate Baloth. When that spell or ability resolves, Cragplate Baloth won't be countered, but any additional effects of the countering spell or ability will still happen. (2020-09-25)
- If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent, the new permanent isn't kicked, even if the original was. (2024-11-08)
- If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it. (2024-11-08)
- If a spell's kicker cost was paid, the spell is "kicked." (2024-11-08)
- The kicker ability doesn't let you pay a kicker cost more than once. (2024-11-08)
- To determine a spell's total cost, start with the mana cost (or an alternative cost if another card's effect allows you to pay one instead), add any cost increases (such as kicker), then apply any cost reductions. The spell's mana value remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was. (2024-11-08)
- If you copy a kicked spell on the stack, the copy is also kicked. If the copied spell is a permanent spell, the token the copy of that spell becomes when it enters is also kicked. (2024-11-08)
