Hi everyone. I am working on a custom set and I came across a rules question. Here is the text giving me confusion:
"Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery from exile, copy it. Cast the copy without paying it's mana cost."
and the "Prowess" keyword.
According to rule 706.10, the copy would be created on the stack and prowess wouldn't trigger. But, the text tells you to cast the copy, so the copy must have been created somewhere else and prowess would trigger.
So, to summarize: Where are copies of instants and sorceries created if the text tells you to cast the copy versus just copying the spell on the stack?
