@tcollins: It doesn't counter Green Sun's Zenith unless they cast it for 0. The converted cost on the stack takes into account the value of X.

I hope this would Force of Will price to go down a little... this card will be in almost every legacy deck...

Free Counterspells legal in legacy;
Force of Will
Daze
Foil
Thwart.
Mindbreak Trap, Misdirection and especially Not of this World are pretty situational.
And this, apparently, is stronger than all of them and got banned in Legacy.
Respect.
(though I don't think it is a stronger card than Force of Will. And I'm sure there are those who will agree or disagree with that. I'm not saying Force of Will should be banned, but just for fun, imagine a legacy format where Force is banned and Misstep is legal. What would your deck be like?)

Not in the least bit broken, useless in standard banned in older formats because rich players were bumsore that a cheap uncommon from the new set was counterspelling thier super expensive cards.

@j_mindfingerpainter
They only have CMC 1 when they're not on the stack. When you play them (assuming X is not 0), they have CMC of one + the chosen X value, so Misstep won't counter them.

.5/5 terrible design. Completely broken.
5/5 for power though... it's entirely too strong.

This card is a Mental Misstep.
