If I deal combat damege with Steel Hellkite and I have a Training Grounds . If I activate the {x},  Is the activation cost 1 mana for casting costs of 1, 2 and 3 mana?

Yes.

If you choose that x=3, then the cost of the ability is - = . If you choose x=2, it costs - = , which turns into due to training grounds' clause. And if you choose x=1, it costs  - = -1 mana, which turns into .

Thanks, What about creatur with colerd activation cost like Evil Twin ? can I chous to pay ither one blue mana or one black mana?

No. The cost is reduced by (two colorless mana). Neither (blue mana) nor (black mana) are colorless mana.

total cost
= activation cost or alternative cost + additional cost and cost increases - cost reductions
= -
=

k thanks, just cheking.

Oh, are we discussing semantics then? Your previous post made it seem like you were trying to say that Steel Hellkite's ability would cost for x=1 or 2 with a Grounds out.

If it's semantics though, please feel free to continue. ^^

oh, thought it said not less than zero! Sorry. I thought that was weird... Incorrect posts deleted.
