Can Panoptic Mirror cast awaken triggered spells?

Asked by mathemagic314 8 years ago

Put simply, if I want to imprint, say Part the Waterveil on Panoptic Mirror, could I pay the 9 converted for the awaken cost as X to awaken every turn in addition to taking another turn every turn? Or can I only imprint the general spell?

Awaken is an alternative way to cast a spell, not an additional cost.

With Panoptic Mirror, you have to pay any additional costs every time you cast a copy of the imprinted spell, but you can't pay alternative costs. So you can't cast spells for their Awaken costs.

12/1/2004: You don't pay the spell's mana cost. If the spell has X in its mana cost, X is 0. You do pay any additional costs for that spell. You can't use any alternative costs.
