"I don't think so" the best flavour text ever ! it should be printed on every counterspells. Nice card, but Daze is better.

Your opponent is like, turn 2 Storm Crow FTW, and you're like, "I don't think so!"

One of my buddies in my playgroup refused to play me for a month after I used this card once. On my first turn I dropped an island and passed back to him. He was all DARK RITUAL DARK RITUAL DARK RITUAL DARK RITUAL SPIRIT OF THE NIGHT HAHA YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY WIN! And I was like uh force spike. You generated 9 mana, but sunk it all into one creature. And then he ragequitted.

Still not as rewarding as Mana Tithe xD

@almighty-abacus
That's not "ragequitting" IMO. You 5-for-1'd him. That's equivalent to a one sided wrath mid-late-game or something else huge. He had no chance of winning. I quit early somewhat often because a combo won't "go off" and I'll have wasted too many resources to attempt it again.. or something.
The overusage of "ragequit" is a bit annoying because there's a huge difference. I DO ragequit some games. Others I concede. How is it a term that's been respectfully and rightly used for centuries is over-written, by what amounts to an insult, in every context.
With that, Force spike is decent for establishing early control against good decks. Whenever I think it's in a deck, I don't play a first turn card unless I don't care about it.

Beast counter for the early game. How often do you see a mage with 1 mana open? And games 2-3 there tempo will be halted, because they will always try to leave a mana open to cast things.
So in some situations it could read, "If you have x4 force spike in your library and your opponent knows it, all his or her spells cost 
more."
