Whrn you have training grounds on the battlefield and a creature like Geth who has an activated ability with X, can you pay 0 and get 2 for free, or do you have to put in at least one for X to get three.
{Training Grounds}
{Geth, Lord of the Vault}
The total cost can't be less than one mana, which would include the one black mana in the cost. You can choose X as 0, 1, or 2 and only pay one B. Above that, you get a two mana discount on X.
So yeah you can pay the one required swamp, then you can pay 0 for X and get
two for free, right. Just making sure I understand correctly. Thanks!

You got it. And it's "up to", do you can still choose zero or one.
(Combo tip: toss in an {Oona, Queen of the Fae} if you got one. 👍)
