Excavation Elephant Rulings

  • Nov 8, 2024

    If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent, the new permanent isn't kicked, even if the original was.

  • Nov 8, 2024

    If a spell's kicker cost was paid, the spell is "kicked."

  • Nov 8, 2024

    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.

  • Nov 8, 2024

    If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it.

  • Nov 8, 2024

    The kicker ability doesn't let you pay a kicker cost more than once.
