Rulings
If this spell is copied, the copy will not have had any colors of mana paid for it, no matter what colors were spent on the original spell.
This spell cares about what mana was spent to pay its total cost, not just what mana was spent to pay the hybrid mana symbol in its cost.
This spell checks on resolution to see if any mana of the appropriate colors were spent to pay its cost. It doesn’t matter how much mana of that color was spent; the effect isn’t multiplied.
