Cascade
Clash
To clash, a player reveals the top card of their library. That player may then put that card on the bottom of their library.
“Clash with an opponent” means “Choose an opponent. You and that opponent each clash.”
A player wins a clash if that player revealed a card with a higher mana value than all other cards revealed in that clash.
Cascade is a triggered ability that functions only while the spell with cascade is on the stack. “Cascade” means “When you cast this spell, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card whose mana value is less than this spell’s mana value. You may cast that card without paying its mana cost if the resulting spell’s mana value is less than this spell’s mana value. Then put all cards exiled this way that weren’t cast on the bottom of your library in a random order.”
If an effect allows a player to take an action with one or more of the exiled cards “as you cascade,” the player may take that action after they have finished exiling cards due to the cascade ability. This action is taken before choosing whether to cast the last exiled card or, if no appropriate card was exiled, before putting the exiled cards on the bottom of their library in a random order.
If a spell has multiple instances of cascade, each triggers separately.
Rulings
You can't add just some of the mana. You either add all the mana or none of it.
You decide whether or not to add that much {C} as the delayed triggered ability resolves at the beginning of your next main phase. You don't decide before then.
