{T}: Add two mana of any one color.

Whenever you cast a spell with {X} in its mana cost, create a 0/0 green Hydra creature token, then put X +1/+1 counters on it.

If X is 0, the 0/0 Hydra token will die immediately after the ability's done resolving unless something else is raising its toughness.

Apr 17, 2020

If an effect, such as that of Parallel Lives, causes Zaxara's ability to create multiple Hydra tokens, they each receive X +1/+1 counters.

Apr 17, 2020

If the spell you cast has {X}{X} in its mana cost, the token gets only X counters, not twice X.

Apr 17, 2020

The Hydra token enters the battlefield as a 0/0 creature. Any abilities that modify or trigger on this event apply. After the token is on the battlefield but before any player can take actions, +1/+1 counters are put onto the token.

Apr 17, 2020

The value of X in Zaxara's last ability is the value of X of the spell you cast.
