Official Rulings (6)
If you cast a spell βwithout paying its mana cost,β you canβt 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.
If you reveal a land card and put that card onto the battlefield, Unexpected Results will be put into its ownerβs hand directly from the stack. It wonβt be put into any graveyard.
If you canβt 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.
If you reveal a land card, Unexpected Results will be returned to your hand only if you put that land card onto the battlefield. If you donβt, Unexpected Results will be put into its ownerβs graveyard.
If you reveal a nonland card, you may cast it during the resolution of Unexpected Results. Ignore timing restrictions based on the cardβs type. Other timing restrictions, such as βCast [this card] only during combat,β must be followed.
If the card has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as its value.
