How do double X casting cards work in MTG?
Just remember, X is whatever you want it to be, but it comes at a price. Twice the price, to be exact.

Double X casting cards in MTG can seem like brain busters, but they're actually pretty cool. Think of X as a variable you get to choose, like when you're deciding how many slices of pizza you can eat in one sitting. When casting a card with XX in its mana cost, you determine what X equals based on how much mana you want to spend. Here's the tricky part: you need to pay double the amount because each X costs that amount. So, if you want X to be 3, you gotta pay 6 mana plus whatever else is in the cost. It's like buying a pizza with an extra topping; the base price is there, but the more toppings (or in this case, the higher the X value), the more you have to pay.
Honestly, double X spells are overrated. Why bother with complicated math when you can smash with creatures?
