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.

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

Wotc — November 08, 2024

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

Wotc — November 08, 2024

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

Wotc — November 08, 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.

Wotc — November 08, 2024

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

Wotc — November 08, 2024

After a spell with split second resolves (or otherwise leaves the stack), players may again cast spells and activate abilities before the next object on the stack resolves.

Wotc — March 19, 2021

Players still get priority while a card with split second is on the stack; their options are just limited to mana abilities and certain special actions.

Wotc — March 19, 2021

Players may turn face-down creatures face up while a spell with split second is on the stack.

Wotc — March 19, 2021

Split second doesn't stop triggered abilities from triggering, such as that of Chalice of the Void. If one does, its controller puts it on the stack and chooses targets for it, if any. Those abilities will resolve as normal.

Wotc — March 19, 2021

Casting a spell with split second won't affect spells and abilities that are already on the stack.

Wotc — March 19, 2021

If the resolution of a triggered ability involves casting a spell, that spell can't be cast if a spell with split second is on the stack.

Wotc — March 19, 2021

If Molten Disaster was kicked, Molten Disaster has split second as long as it's on the stack.
