Rulings
-
You don’t choose which creature to sacrifice until Tip the Scales resolves. You must sacrifice exactly one creature if you control one at that time. Doing so causes a “reflexive” ability to trigger. Players may respond to that ability knowing the value of X.
-
Use the sacrificed creature’s toughness as it last existed on the battlefield to determine the value of X.
