Oh, cool design. The fun bit of "X copies" while possibly not being too good :)

Best combos I could see are Hada Freeblade for X X/X creatures, or Soul Warden for X squared life.

Flash back a Roar of the Wurm and follow it up with 3-4 6/6 Wurm tokens?

Ooh, yeah... you probably want to say non-token creature. Or "with a casting cost of 1" would clear that up while hiding the problem. I also find this card fascinating. I'm trying to figure out a creature than can break this, but the best I can come up with is Virulent Sliver. Maybe Spore Frog. Hada Freeblade is probably the winner, though.

If you can get a Vexing Devil to stick, making lots of copies of that would be pretty funny.

Oh, right. Tokens could be dangerous with this. I'll make it CMC 1 exactly, though Hada Freeblade and Champion of the Parish would still be scary.

Is it weird that I made this while trying to think of a blue spell that would go well in a ramp deck?

Fascinating card. I like it.

X-cost creatures are another tempting avenue, but don't really work because they all want +1/+1 counters (Ivy Elemental etc). Mikaeus, the Lunarch would be good if you had a Mirror Gallery and a Veteran Armorer out. Lightning Serpent is the best, but you'd usually be better off just hitting Spark Elemental.

Oh, and yes, 1 CMC is probably a good idea -- I didn't think of it before, but the best 0 mana creature is probably Wildblood Pack, where X=4 gives five 20/5 trample creatures.

But if you restrict to 1 CMC it's probably ok -- it's pretty strong with Hada Freeblade, but as long as you avoid having any 1 CMC "when another enters the battlefield" creatures in Standard, this+Freeblade is probably not too good for Modern.
