What happens if you clone a card like the Headless Skaab? My assumption, is that it would enter the battlefield tapped, but it wouldn't incur the additional cost of exiling a creature from your graveyard. Is this correct?

@DanForever yep that's right. Clone doesn't copy any extra casting costs of the creatures it copies but it does copy ETB abilities.

I've yet to be disappointed when I play this. Copy your own creature, copy theirs. Flicker it. Whatever. It removes hexproof legends (and there are a couple of pesky ones available) or just plain old legendary creatures. It's annoyingly good in EDH , and is a solid card. I think it's a great choice for a reprint, especially after Phantasmal Image broke clone effects. Well, the Image and Sun Titan, that is.

This is my favorite card in the game right now. Oh, you have a $120 Tarmogoyf? Me too! Mine looks like a $0.20 rare though. Oh, your legendary creature has shroud? Good thing my Clone doesn't target!
My favorite interaction in the world is a Clone dropped into a Mimic Vat. It's always fun being able to pop out copies of anything in play for 3c.

A lot of people don't understand just how powerful Clone is. Here, let me share it's hidden ability:
Clone 3U Sorcery
Destroy target legendary creature. This spell can target legendary creatures with hexproof and shroud.
Think about how awesome that is for EDH. Yeah.

The legend rule change isn't nearly as bad as it seems. Ok so you don't get to destroy their legend, but you DO get to copy it. It's still likely worse (they probably buffed their hexproof Geist or Thrun or whatever it is), but still.
