Outlaw Stitcher

Plot abilities are written “Plot [cost],” which means “Any time you have priority during your main phase while the stack is empty, you may pay [cost] and exile this card from your hand. It becomes plotted.”

Outlaw Stitcher’s ability will count all spells you’ve cast this turn except the first, including itself (if it wasn’t the first spell), spells that were countered or didn’t resolve, and spells that are still on the stack.

If you’re casting a plotted card from exile without paying its mana cost, you can’t choose to cast it for any other alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the plotted card has any mandatory additional costs, those must still be paid to cast the spell.
