Sorcery, X{G/W} (1) You gain X life if {G} was spent to cast Dawnglow Infusion and X life if {W} was spent to cast it. (Do both if {G}{W} was spent.)1 Dawnglove bloom is a potent nostrum, but the dawnglow brewed from its sap is nothing less than life itself.

5/1/2008: The spell cares about what mana was spent to pay its total cost, not just what mana was spent to pay the hybrid part of its cost.
5/1/2008: The spell checks on resolution to see if any mana of the stated colors was spent to pay its cost. If so, it doesn't matter how much mana of that color was spent.
5/1/2008: If the spell is copied, the copy will never have had mana of the stated color paid for it, no matter what colors were spent on the original spell.
5/1/2008: If you spent both {G} and {W} to cast Dawnglow Infusion, you'll gain (X + X) life. An ability that triggers whenever you gain life will trigger just once.
5/1/2008: Whether you choose to spend both {G} and {W} to cast Dawnglow Infusion has no bearing on the value of X. For example, say you decide that X is 4 and you'll spend {G} on {G/W}. If you end up spending {W}{W}{R}{R}{G} to pay the cost, X is still 4 and you've spent both {G} and {W}. You'll gain a total of 8 life.
