(6/6/2025) To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as a flashback cost), add any cost increases (such as kicker costs), then apply any cost reductions (such as that of The Fire Crystal's first ability)
This can get you strong cards onto the field to start overwhelming your opponent
