Created for Challenge # 027. Unrelated hybrid symbols in costs just look ugly to me. A cost like (2)(gu)(wb) or (gw)(ub) looks horribly scattershot. The solution? Add the bridging hybrid symbol in-between, so (gw)(ub) becomes (gw)(wu)(ub).

This can be cast in {g}{u}, {w}{b}, or {w}{u}; and I think it works in all of them.

wait, I just remembered how expensive Primordial Sage is. Increase cost.

(The Recycle effect is costly for a reason, I'd add. I've been playing around with an Animar, Soul of Elements EDH deck which uses any combination of Glimpse of Nature, Primordial Sage, Recycle and Future Sight to cast hordes of mostly-free creatures and keep drawing into more creatures.)

I agree, they do look ugly without something in between. I doubt they would ever be printed. I just thought it would be a fun exercise.
