This spell costs 
more to cast for each target beyond the first.
Fireball deals X damage divided evenly, rounded down, among any number of targets.
En un santiamén, el vergel apestó a azufre, a humo y a osgo abrasado, con notas cítricas.Te cuesta más lanzar este hechizo por cada objetivo después del primero.
La Bola de fuego hace X puntos de daño divididos equitativamente, redondeando hacia abajo, entre cualquier cantidad de objetivos.
You may cast Fireball with zero targets, regardless of the value chosen for X. If you do so, it will not be a targeted spell, and no damage will actually be dealt when it resolves.
Fireball's damage is divided as Fireball resolves, not as it's cast, because there are no choices involved. The division involves only targets that are still legal as Fireball resolves.
For example, if X is 5 and you choose three target creatures, Fireball has a total cost of {7}{R} (even though its mana cost is just {5}{R} and its mana value is 6). If those creatures are all still legal targets as Fireball resolves, it deals 1 damage to each of them.
You can target more than X creatures. However, if the number of legal targets at the time Fireball resolves is greater than X, none of them will be dealt any damage.
Legality follows the dated Scryfall catalog snapshot.
