Good point tavaritz, but this isn't so much better than Power Sink. Power Sink negates a whole opponent's turn, so in that contest in better.
However, this is better to counter a few-mana spell, but the sink is better to counter a lot-mana spell. The counter-point is that if you counter a lot-mana spell with power sink, chances are that your opponent spent a lot of mana in it, so draining its mana may not be so useful SOMETIMES...
If I had to play only these counterspell, I would play 4 Sink and 2 Blast, because the Sink is useful at the early and late game, when your opponent spends almost all his/her mana for his/her most powerful spell, while the blast is most useful only at the early game if you're ahead of 1 mana, and in the late game maybe you can counter only some minor therat. Useful but somehow situational...
2.5/5

It beside the point of counterspelling. Fail. If you can counter a powerful, costly spell, it means you're untapped. If you're that untapped, it means you did not do much of your last turn...
