Kicker (You may pay an additional as you cast this spell.)
Target creature you control gets +2/+2 until end of turn. If this spell was kicked, put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control.
"Root and wing, claw and sword; this will be a memorable stand, indeed."n—Lyra Dawnbringer
If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it.

To determine a spell's total cost, start with the mana cost (or an alternative cost if another card's effect allows you to pay one instead), add any cost increases (such as kicker), then apply any cost reductions. The spell's mana value remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.
