    If any artifacts or enchantments were chosen as targets, and all of them are illegal targets as Pest Infestation tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. No Pests will be created.

  • WotCApr 16, 2021

    The number of Pests created is equal to twice the chosen value of X, no matter how many artifacts and enchantments were destroyed.
