Is Replicating considered playing another spell?
Asked by ilikeoldcardsbetter 14 years ago
you play Train of Thought and replicate once, will your Wee Dragonauts get +2/+0 or +4/+0?
xeratheenigma says... #2
the answer is the dragonauts will only recieve +2/+0
because his ability reads "whenever you play(which has been changed to cast) a spell"
and replicate only copies spells it does not play(or cast) spells

Replicate says it copies the spell. Copy spells are not played but are put directly onto the stack. Therefore, your Wee Dragonauts would not get any benefits from replicate.
Also note that the word "play" has been reworded to "cast" because it makes more sense. Lands, however, are still worded as "play."
