Cut of the Profits rulings

2022-04-29
X will be the same for both the original spell and the copy you create with the casualty ability.
2022-04-29
Casualty N means “As an additional cost to cast this spell, you may sacrifice a creature with power N or greater.” and “When you cast this spell, if a casualty cost was paid for it, copy it. If the spell has any targets, you may choose new targets for the copy.”
2022-04-29
You may sacrifice only one creature to pay a spell's casualty cost, and you copy the spell only once.
2022-04-29
If you pay the casualty cost of a spell, the copy will resolve before the original spell.
2022-04-29
The copy of the spell is created on the stack, so it's not “cast.” Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell won't trigger.

Cut of the Profits keyword rules

Casualty Rule 702.153

Casualty is a keyword that represents two abilities. The first is a static ability that functions while the spell with casualty is on the stack. The second is a triggered ability that functions while the spell with casualty is on the stack. Casualty N means “As an additional cost to cast this spell, you may sacrifice a creature with power N or greater,” and “When you cast this spell, if a casualty cost was paid for it, copy it. If the spell has any targets, you may choose new targets for the copy.” Paying a spell’s casualty cost follows the rules for paying additional costs in rules and –h.

If a spell has multiple instances of casualty, each is paid separately and triggers based on the payments made for it, not any other instance of casualty.
