Potential infinite copy mechanic?
Asked by AronVonder 9 months ago
With Jodah, Archmage Eternal you can pay WUBRG instead of a spells cost and with Morophon, the Boundless you get a reduction of WUBRG mana cost on spells with the creature type you choose. This means that you can cast all spells of that creature type for free. Now my question is how this interacts with Hatchery Sliver. Assuming the “free” creature type is sliver you could essentially infinitely copy any sliver you wanted since their mana cost is effectively free. Am I getting this right?

Not quite. Jodah, Archmage Eternal doesn't directly change a card's mana cost. The mana cost of a card is exactly what's printed in the top right corner-- for Predatory Sliver, for example. Replicate adds an optional additional cost equal to the mana cost and is not affected by Jodah's ability.
