Catharsis
When this creature enters, if {W}{W} was spent to cast it, create two 1/1 green and white Kithkin creature tokens. When this creature enters, if {R}{R} was spent to cast it, creatures you control get +1/+1 and gain haste until end of turn. Evoke {R/W}{R/W} (You may cast this spell for its evoke cost. If you do, it's sacrificed when it enters.)

Nov 17, 2025 · Catharsis's first and second abilities check to see if at least two mana of the appropriate colors were spent to pay Catharsis's cost. It doesn't matter if more than two mana of that color was spent; the effect isn't multiplied.
