You can’t cast the copy if an effect prevents you from casting instants or sorceries, or from casting that particular instant or sorcery. It doesn’t matter whether your opponent can cast the card at this time; the only thing that matters is whether you can cast it.

You cast the copy while this ability is resolving and still on the stack. Normally, you’re not allowed to cast spells or activate abilities at this time. Reversal of Fortune provides an exception.

You don’t pay the spell’s mana cost. If the spell has X in its mana cost, X is 0. You do pay any additional costs for that spell. You can’t use any alternative costs.
