Do you have to split the mana you paid 50/50? For example, if you played this and payed 10 for the X, could you choose to get 1 9/9, or 9 1/1s if you wanted to? Even though the combination that will result in the highest total is 50/50 (5 x 5 = 20), you may still want to get a lot of weak monsters, instead of a few strong ones.

Interesting, if I'm doing my math right, an opponent can kill all the creatures you've produced with this by paying one mana less for a Fireball.

So, the way this is read, that people continuously say "your reading it wrong" is this, X is EVERYTHING on this card, X is at minimun 2 which gives 2 2/2 Slime tokens. X cannot be different amount when, so you HAVE to pay either 2, 4, 6, 8, ect...

So, paying 8Green you would get 8 8/8 creatures?

My friend played this once. He was able to build up a massive mana pool (thanks to Vorinclex and Caged Sun) and payed 9 for X.
"So I put down 9 9/9s-"
At which point I stood up and began slapping the table while shouting NEIN NEIN NEIN repeatedly. It was a memorable moment.

One time my friends and I played a huge game with confusion in the ranks and my friend's "Siegetower Deck", which was basically a mashup of a whole bunch of decks that accidentally got smushed together...we were trading around Hand of Emrakul and some blue pingy wall...then I played Wild Evocation and accidentally murdered my friend with confusion in the ranks, and the other opponent had all the good creatures...then he played this and got 19 19/19's...fun stuff

I got 17 mana with this, but was up against an army of 1/1s with Vigor on the field. I eventually used Triumph of the hordes to kill him.
