Does flickering count as casting in MTG?
Flickering != casting. It's a loophole to reuse ETB effects without the hassle of casting costs. Super handy!

Nope, flickering a creature doesn't count as casting it. Flickering means the creature leaves the battlefield and then returns, but since you're not paying the mana cost to play it from your hand, it's not considered casting. Great for dodging removal or re-triggering those sweet, sweet enter-the-battlefield effects though!
Totally not! Flickering is more like a magic trick - now you see it, now you don't, and voila, it's back again. It skips the whole casting process, so no, it's not the same as casting.
