What it does

Kicker (You may pay an additional {R} as you cast this spell.)

When this creature enters, if it was kicked, creatures you control get +1/+0 and gain haste until end of turn.

Rulings

7 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2009-10-01

    Only creatures you control as Goblin Bushwhacker's ability resolves are affected. This includes Goblin Bushwhacker itself, unless it already left the battlefield by then.

  • 2024-11-08

    To determine a spell's total cost, start with the mana cost (or an alternative cost if another card's effect allows you to pay one instead), add any cost increases (such as kicker), then apply any cost reductions. The spell's mana value remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

  • 2024-11-08

    If you copy a kicked spell on the stack, the copy is also kicked. If the copied spell is a permanent spell, the token the copy of that spell becomes when it enters is also kicked.

  • 2024-11-08

    If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent, the new permanent isn't kicked, even if the original was.

  • 2024-11-08

    If a spell's kicker cost was paid, the spell is "kicked."

  • 2024-11-08

    If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it.

  • 2024-11-08

    The kicker ability doesn't let you pay a kicker cost more than once.

Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

4 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly. A printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall publishes none for some of them.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Goblin Bushwhacker. It runs a name search across every version, which covers the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only. No individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
