  • The ability affects each spell that's not an artifact spell, including your own.
  • The ability affects the total cost of each nonartifact spell, but it doesn't change that spell's mana cost or mana value. The extra mana also doesn't change how many times you kicked the spell or what the value of X is (if applicable).
  • When determining a spell's total cost, effects that increase the cost are applied before effects that reduce the cost.

    Rules

  • If Trinisphere leaves the battlefield or becomes tapped or untapped as a cost to cast a spell, this cost is paid after you've locked in the total cost.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. Finally, apply Trinisphere's effect if the mana component of the spell's cost is less than three mana. The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

    As long as this artifact is untapped, each spell that would cost less than three mana to cast costs three mana to cast. (Additional mana in the cost may be paid with any color of mana or colorless mana. For example, a spell that would cost to cast costs to cast instead.)
