How do X cost cards work in MTG?
Just a heads up, X can be 0! So if you're strapped for mana, you don't have to sit there doing nothing. You can cast an X cost spell with X as 0, but don't expect the fireworks. Great for when you're in a pinch or need to trigger certain abilities or effects that require casting a spell.

X cost cards? Overrated. Sure, flexibility sounds great until you realize you need a ton of mana to make them worth it. Other cards give you bang for your buck without the hoopla.
In MTG, X cost cards are super flexible! The 'X' in their mana cost lets you decide how much mana you want to pour into them. The more mana you invest, the more powerful the effect. For instance, if you cast a spell that has 'X' in its cost, you can choose how much mana of the appropriate type(s) to spend. This amount determines the spell's strength or effect magnitude. It's like choosing the power level of your spell on the fly!
