Based on the ruling entry below, if Kolaghan is selected as a result of Wild Evocation's ability, I assume I can't cast Kolaghan for free using dash's alternative cost? I must cast him for free using his regular casting cost instead? Appreciate any verification or correction. Thank you.
"If, as the result of Wild Evocation’s ability, a player casts a card “without paying its mana cost,” any X in the mana cost will be 0, and that player can’t pay any alternative costs (such as Demon of Death’s Gate’s alternative cost). On the other hand, if the card has optional additional costs (such as kicker or multikicker), the player may pay those."
You are correct that you must cast him for his normal cost. The reason is that Dash is an alternative casting cost and as the ruling states you cannot pay any alternative costs.
