Is copying a spell considered casting it in MTG?
Nope, copying a spell in MTG isn't the same as casting it. When you copy a spell, it’s like getting an echo of the spell—it's already on the stack and doesn't require you to pay its mana cost or anything. So, triggers that happen when you cast a spell won't happen with just a copy.

Gotta chime in with a simple 'No'. Copying =/= casting.
Here's the deal, copied spells are awesome 'cause they feel like freebies—but they don't count as casting. Found this out the hard way in a game where my 'cast a spell' trigger sat there doing nothing while I copied away like a wizard on autopilot.
