I think this spell is awesome! Great in a control deck...and you can still do something really useful with 1 mana! ;-)

I like it and it could replace Rune Snag in some ways...^^

This is the top counterspell in Extended, but probably not the best choice in Standard (supposing it were Standard-legal) where things are generally slower or what back in the day we called "Type 1" formats, in which you better be playing 4 Force of Will, your Mana Drain, and 4 plain old Counterspell as you counter base.

They just don't write flavor text like this anymore.

Love the flavor text, but why does Watchwolf have to do with backstabbing? They should show somebody stopping a Dimir Infiltrator.

Lol, I actually have a deck that this does nothing against. Its not normal to have no 2 drops though. This card is a tourney staple.

Hoping for a reprint in Gatecrash with new art! (But not new art like Dispel got it, the other way round, please.)
