Only exists so draft and sealed players get a mono-blue counterspell in the set. It's bad, very very bad, but WotC wants Ravanica block players to play two or more colors.

Hey, it's a combo with Moonlace!
No? Well, at least I tried.

It's not exactly Mana Drain, is it?

Wow, why is this rated at 0.5/5? This is one of those few (almost) hard counters that doesn't cost double blue to cast. So what if it can't hit blue spells? This really isn't that much worse than Cancel. Whenever a spell becomes more splashable, the cost usually goes up by 1.
This is not Ember Shot or Moonlace... It's not like every blue counter has to be supergodly Mana Drain powerful.
Bad Card? Yes.
Does it deserve a 0.5 rating? No.
I have enough respect for blue to rate this a 2/5
(And Moonlace is rated 1.5 - HA!)

@Dberry...
This card is rated a 0.5 because it has a drawback. normally, not that bad. negate is a decent counter with a drawback. Negate costs two mana, this costs four and is useless against a majority of a U_ control deck. In a control deck, mana space is everything. People dont even like playing cancel cuz it costs too much, they are nto going to play a four mana counter, thats absurd

Half star. There are so many better counterspells to work with.
