For example, if you draft Garbage Fire as the third card in a draft round and then another one as the twelfth card in a draft round, each Garbage Fire will deal 12 damage. Yikes.

If you somehow cast, copy, or gain control of Garbage Fire but you didn't draft one, the highest noted number is considered to be 0, so Garbage Fire won't deal any damage.
