Artifact Mutation reads : Destroy target artifact. It can't be regenerated. Put X 1/1 tokens into play, where X is it's converted mana cost.

Say you use this on an undestructible artifact like DSC, will it be countered on resolution or will you still put 11 (X) tokens into play?

Put X 1/1 green Saproling creature tokens into play, where X is its converted mana cost.


416.3. If an effect attempts to do something impossible, it does only as much as possible.


Indestructible: If a permanent is indestructible, rules and effects can't destroy it. Such permanents are not destroyed by lethal damage, and they ignore the lethal-damage state-based effect (see rule 420.5c). Rules or effects may cause an indestructible permanent to be sacrificed, put into a graveyard, or removed from the game.

Artifact Mutation will attempt to destroy the Colossus, but that will have no effect. It can still put the tokens into play, though.
