Love the art, love the card, love that this and Negate are core set staples.

In a creature based meta-game, this is the go-to counter spell.

While I am partial to how versatile Negate is, this is a solid choice considering how creature based the majority of decks are.

5/5 just for how efficient it is and for how glad I am that it came back in this core set.

How is it that Essence Scatter and Remove Soul are the same thing, yet rated differently?

I'd like to see new arts as the bird effect seems more white.

Needed to punch all those stupid "creature go" decks in the face.

They need to just keep the staple counter combo of Spell Pierce / Mana Tithe , Essence Scatter and Negate . All three are useful early and often, aren't overly powerful while remaining useful and as they are commons are a great pauper / new player friendly entry card. Cancel can just keep at an every other core reprint as long as we have these three.

Could I use this to counter the playing of a creature card onto the battlefield?

@littlet93: You can counter creature spell cast from hand or when an affect says "you can CAST/PLAY card...". You can't counter creature that is "PUT onto the battlefield".
