Official Rulings (8)
If the spell has any targets, the copy will have the same targets unless you choose new ones. You may change any number of the targets, including all of them or none of them. The new targets must be legal.
The copy created by Adaptive Training Postβs last ability resolves before the spell itβs copying. It resolves even if the original spell is countered before the copy is created.
If the spell thatβs copied is modal (that is, it says βChoose one ββ or the like), the copy will have the same mode or modes. You canβt choose different ones.
The copy is created on the stack, so itβs not βcast.β Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell wonβt trigger.
You canβt choose to pay any additional costs for the copy. However, effects based on any additional costs that were paid for the original spell are copied as though those same costs were paid for the copy too.
If the copied spell divides damage or distributes counters among a number of targets, the division and number of targets canβt be changed. If you choose new targets, you must choose the same number of targets.
If the spell thatβs copied has an X whose value was determined as it was cast, the copy will have the same value of X.
After Adaptive Training Postβs last ability resolves, the next instant or sorcery spell you cast that turn will be copied whether or not it has targets.
