Flying When this creature enters, exile up to one target tapped creature. Suspend 5— (Rather than cast this card from your hand, you may pay and exile it with five time counters on it. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a time counter. When the last is removed, you may cast it without paying its mana cost. It has haste.)

Rulings (13)

Due to a recent rules change to suspend, you are no longer required to cast the suspended card as the second triggered ability of suspend resolves. Instead, as the second triggered ability resolves, you may cast the card. Timing permissions based on the card's type are ignored. If you don't cast the card, it remains exiled with no time counters on it, and it's no longer suspended.

The mana value of a spell cast without paying its mana cost is determined by its mana cost, even though that cost wasn't paid.

If the spell requires any targets, those targets are chosen when the spell is finally cast, not when it's exiled.
