Answer

Ruling: "Cost" in card text always means printed cost only. It does not include additional costs or repeat costs.

Nuances:

  • Cards like "Riposte" that increase cost only affect the printed cost, not additional or repeat costs
  • Cards like "Yordle Explorer" do not trigger even if a card like "Corina Veraza" is accelerated, because acceleration modifies the printed cost

Does this answer look correct?
