I have a question?
If I attended card named Insidious Will to my deck and play it and i choose to copy it itself, isn´t it infinite process that can be use with probably SOUL-SCAR MAGE. If my Annahme wasn´t righ, please write it.

The copy will have the same targets as the original, so it stops looping because the original gets countered by the copy.

You cannot make a copy of the spell (unless you cast another Insidious Will after the first), as you need to choose the target for the spell during casting, which means before putting it on the stack. Also copying a sorcery/ instant doesn't count as casting it. If you want the explanation in German, just say so.

115.1. Some spells and abilities require their controller to choose one or more targets for them. The targets are object(s) and/or player(s) the spell or ability will affect. These targets are declared as part of the process of putting the spell or ability on the stack. The targets can’t be changed except by another spell or ability that explicitly says it can do so.

The problem with Soul-Scar Mage is that Insidious Will only provides you with 2 copy of e.g. a Lightning Bolt.
You cast Insidious Will (1O), targeting e.g. Lightning Bolt
You cast Insidious Will (2O), targeting 1O.
2O resolves, putting a copy of 1O on the stack (C1) and letting you choose new targets for the spell, which you choose to be 1O.
C1 resolves, putting a copy of 1O on the stack (C2) and letting you choose new targets for the spell, which you choose to be 1O.
CX resolves putting a copy of 1O on the stack (CX+1) and letting you choose new targets for the spell, which you choose to be Lightning Bolt.
So in the end you have used cast 3 spells, 9 mana to create a loop and copy Lightning Bolt 2 times.


I don't think that this will be the case wickeddarkman, because copying a modal spell doesn't let you choose new modes, but the mode itself says that you may choose new targets for the spell.

707.10. To copy a spell, activated ability, or triggered ability means to put a copy of it onto the stack; a copy of a spell isn’t cast and a copy of an activated ability isn’t activated. A copy of a spell or ability copies both the characteristics of the spell or ability and all decisions made for it, including modes, targets, the value of X, and additional or alternative costs.
