Why, yes, I would like to cast a kicked Rite of Replication for only five mana.
Wouldn't you need to have 9 lands on the board to do so?
I certainly like the card, but the land drawback will keep this one in check a bit.
No, you don't. I assume it works like other similar effects. Check As Foretold, for instance. When casting as a spell with an alternate cost, you are allowed to pay additional costs (i.e Kicker) but not other alternative costs. (i.e. Emerge). This should allow you to cast a kicked Rite of Replication for five I'm the same manner.

Nope, land drawback only cares about CMC, which makes this card really good with cards that have expensive kicker effect.
Thanks for the clarification. Looks like fun for those high kicker cost spells. And yes this will be part of some degenerate combo deck in Modern at some point I would imagine.
