Its versatility is what makes it so great, especially the fact that it stops triggered abilities.

On the art: I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going.

Another cheer for the "GUU" cost! I love this baby, and just about everyone that plays me hates it. This is my favorite counterspell in the game. This will shut down anything in the game. (Honestly, never counter mana abilities, counter whatever they do with that mana!) Nothing like being prepared!

Good counterspell, very flexible and definitely better than goddamned Cancel.

Did you really say cancel is more flexible? This is slime, for crying out loud. Replace the generic mana with green and you get so much more versatility. This is why bant charm is so good---it can do a lot of stuff.
I keep hitting Random Card and getting this I need to get a playset. Or a life. Lol

I think this can stop abilities like storm. Tell your opponent "You get only get your original"
This is the hardest counter I know of. It stops everything cold. This offer a lot of potential with creative thinking and countering the right ability at the right time. You can lead an opponent into some mean traps with this.

So awesome, UG is the most fun to play. I've always liked it and I've hated cancel ever since Time Spiral. 5 stars, damn straight.

Saying Cancel is more flexible because it has a generic mana instead of green is a gross and bizarre assertion made by someone who has clearly never heard of Counterspell. ANYONE who mentions Force of Will is clearly a counter-snob and should stop power-gaming in a harmless children's cardgame.
I love this card, and only wish it wasn't so good it broke the Dollar-Rare mark. The flavor text makes me hope it gets re-printed as a Tribal Ooze though.

And once you cast the first one, just set aside 2 untapped islands and forest with one card, any card from your hand really, face down on top of those lands.
Especially fun in multi-player games as one of the players eyes will always be staring at that stack of cards.
