Official rulings

  1. Effects that increase or reduce the cost to cast a Trap will apply to whichever cost you chose to pay. (2009-10-01)
  2. Casting a Trap by paying its alternative cost doesn't change its mana cost or mana value. The only difference is the cost you actually pay. (2009-10-01)
  3. You may ignore a Trap's alternative cost condition and simply cast it for its normal mana cost. This is true even if its alternative cost condition has been met. (2009-10-01)
