If the mana cost of the revealed card includes {X}, X is considered to be 0.
wotc1 Feb 2014
If an inspired ability triggers during your untap step, the ability will be put on the stack at the beginning of your upkeep. If the ability creates one or more token creatures, those creatures won't be able to attack that turn (unless they gain haste).
wotc1 Feb 2014
Inspired abilities don't trigger when the creature enters the battlefield.
wotc1 Feb 2014
If the revealed card doesn't have a mana cost (because it's a land card, for example), its mana value is 0.
wotc1 Feb 2014
If the inspired ability includes an optional cost, you decide whether to pay that cost as the ability resolves. You can do this even if the creature leaves the battlefield in response to the ability.
wotc1 Feb 2014
Inspired abilities trigger no matter how the creature becomes untapped: by the turn-based action at the beginning of the untap step or by a spell or ability.
