Spend only black and/or red mana on X.
Soul Burn deals X damage to any target. You gain life equal to the damage dealt, but not more than the amount of spent on X, the player's life total before the damage was dealt, the planeswalker's loyalty before the damage was dealt, or the creature's toughness.
