@Gezus82 If I'm not mistaking, it does work with kicker and X mana cost (a copy also copies the mode of the card, X among other things). It will create only one additionnal copy of spell with storm, since the storm copies are not being cast, they're being put directly onto the stack.
It's te same way as storm does not count previous storm copies. For instance, if you play a brain freeze after playing a ponder and a brainstorm, it will create 2 copy, for a total of 12 cards milled, if you play a second brainfreeze, it will only create 3 copy for a total of 16 cards, it won't count the first 2 copy.
I hope I haven't mislead you and that you we're able to understand what I meant!

What can I say that hasn't already been said. Mode summed things up very well. This is the best of the Ascensions and thus the best of the Quests. This card is a beautiful hybrid of burn staple and combo-fantastic fun.

See, this is what the military calls a "force multiplayer."

Works well with so many cards that listing them all would take forever, but my favourites would be Punishing Fire and Seimic Spike. Play 3 of the former and then you can return it to your hand ready to play again AND be copied AND be returned again as many times as you like. As for Seismic Spike... destroy two target lands AND you end up with all of your mana back? Beautiful.

It could be potentially awesome when it goes active.. or one shroud creature or naturalize kills it. Hard to say, certainly twin cast would be brutal here. It's actually not quite as good as a simple replicate since it allows you to copy a spell infi number of times vs. once, like djinn illuminatus.
