Currently working on a standard legal deck featuring this that lets you have 14 14/14's on turn six with a "god hand"
I'll post the link when I finish

@TrueBloodWolf
To reiterate, you're reading it wrong. you need to pay each X with the same amount of mana, 8 mana spent would mean you spend 4 mana into each X (along with the additional green), thus X=4.
My personal favorite method to use this card is with a flipped Sasaya, Orochi Ascendant. Oddly enough, she IS an exponential card. i had 11 forests out and flipped her (rites of spring with 9 cards i hand, one of which was the genesis). 121 mana makes a nice set of 60 60/60s :D.
Mind you, that was EDH, and it`ll probably never happen in another format.

@Roy1138 If you are using artifical evolution, why not just name Allies? Then with a Kazandu Blademaster and a Kabira Evangel you would have a ton of pro-5 color fatties and most likely swing for lethal. And with a few Harabaz Druid this is not a difficult thing to pull off.

@Gelzo
I'm afraid you're not doing your math right. If I pay 17 total for Gelatinous Genesis and you wanted to kill all 8 8/8s, you would need to pay 73 mana total for your Fireball.

@Gelzo I think that's wrong. Suppose your opponent makes 3 3/3 tokens (costing 7cmc). You cast a Fireball to deal 9 damage (9cmc) divided among 3 targets (3-1 = 2cmc) for a total of 11cmc.

use with omnath, primordial hydra, and overwhelming stampede.
can get to millions of damage, if the hydra is big enough.
think: 8192/8192 hydra (2^13), 200 200/200 oozes with omnath, stampede.
1654784 damage. without omnath. and you can actually do this around turn 20.
yeah, its not competetive, but amazing in casual.
