@Travelsonic: Not only could you do exactly that, you have a few ways in which you can reach that point.
1: Truamatize, in response, I twincast it and if you thought that was bad, I have a second twincast as a response to that for you.
There's absolutely nothing stopping you from copying a spell so long as that spell is still on the stack.
2: Truamatize, in response, I twincast it and now respond to that twincast by twincasting my twincast which will twincast twincast...
3:"... And now my twincasted twincast, twincast by twincast will twincast-"
"Thassa damnit! COUNTERFLUX!"
"Ah, ah, ah. Impatient little Izzet mage... (see all)

In my humble opinion this should be rated 5/5 and it seems that many of the posters aren't quite thinking outside the box. This spell can target counterspells, such as Cryptic Command, and use them against the counterspell. This effect allows your spell to be put into play and grants any other effects that spell may provide. When used properly, Twincast becomes a potent defensive weapon, as well as the obvious "Fork-esq" offensive spell.

A very fun card. In casual, I throw 1 or 2 of these into every blue deck I have just because it can be quite interesting against most opponents.

@Warwikk- I believe, like Pyromancer Ascension and a few other cards that copy, that you get to copy the X, too. Sooo with a Banefire set to 10 and 2 Islands sitting around, that's game.
Also, thank god this card is copy and not cast. Otherwise the sort of mayhem that could be wreaked would be LEGEN- wait for it -DARY!

Combo with Hive Mind and/or Shahrazad. In multiplayer.
Edit: new 2011 card Reverberate is this colorshifted into red... well, back into red.

When I first bought a Tenth Edition fatpack to re-introduce me to Magic, I got three of these. At first I didn't think about using this card until I was playing against a friend- which he used Demonfire against me (which had Hell-bent) to win. After the game, I realized that I underestimated the potential of this card.
Such an evil card either way- with you or against you.

Twincast is incredibly versitile, becoming anything you need it to be at the time. Not only can you double your own nasty spells (Glimpse the Unthinkable or offensive boosters), it can counter counterspells (doubling Cryptic Command is just nasty). My favorite use of this is as a spoiler for combo decks that like to use storm to hit you with one shot; your Twincast will resolve on the stack first, hitting your opponent dead before his damage has a chance to resolve.
