1/24/2013	If you can't cast the card (perhaps because there are no legal targets), or if you choose not to, the card will remain on top of the library.
1/24/2013	If you cast a spell "without paying its mana cost," you can't pay alternative costs such as overload costs. You can pay additional costs such as kicker costs. If the card has mandatory additional costs, you must pay those.
