Celestial Reunion
A tutor with an escape hatch built into its price. The base mode is a scaling green search: pay into X, comb the whole library for a creature at that mana value or less, and take it to hand. The behold clause is where the card stops being an ordinary tutor. Behold is an additional-cost verb that asks you to name a creature type and then satisfy it with two creatures of that type, either by choosing qualifying permanents you already control or by revealing qualifying cards from your hand, spending none of them; the reward for showing them is that a matching hit skips the grip entirely and enters the battlefield, a full tempo swing over a search that stops in hand. That gates the payoff behind already having two creatures of a shared type on your side, on the board or in the grip, so a tribal deck that has committed a body or held back reinforcements gets a cheat-into-play tutor while a stranded caster gets a slower green search that only ever refills the hand. The recurring problem with tutors that drop cards straight onto the battlefield is that they either cost too much or ask nothing of the caster; this one asks you to prove the tribe first. Note how X ties the two halves together: whatever you paid to reach the creature's mana value is the same X that bounds how large a body you can drop into play, so cost and payoff pull in the same direction rather than against each other.
