If the copied spell has an X whose value was determined as it was cast (like Sphinx’s Revelation does), the copy has the same value of X.

If the copied spell is modal (that is, it says “Choose one —” or the like), the copy will have the same mode. You can’t choose a different one.

Nivix Guildmage’s second ability can target (and copy) any instant or sorcery spell you control, not just one with targets.

La copia tendrá los mismos objetivos que el hechizo que está copiando, a menos que elijas otros nuevos. Puedes cambiar cualquier cantidad de objetivos, incluidos todos o ninguno. Si, para uno de los objetivos, no puedes elegir un nuevo objetivo legal, entonces permanece sin cambios (incluso si el objetivo actual no es legal).

When the second ability resolves, it creates a copy of a spell. That copy is created on the stack, so it’s not “cast.” Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell won’t trigger. The copy will then resolve like a normal spell, after players get a chance to cast spells and activate abilities.

You can’t choose to pay any additional costs for the copy. However, effects based on any additional or alternative costs that were paid for the original spell are copied as though those same costs were paid for the copy too. For example, if you copy a spell that you cast by paying its overload cost, the copy will resolve as though its overload cost had been paid as well.
