I'm not a fan of griefer cards in multi-player, but, I HATE blue. It's such a busted color. o.o; What? Counterspells are so mean XD TAKE THAT BLUE MAGE! Blow up all your islands!

UP WITH COLOR HOSERS!
They don't make color hosers anymore because they say that they are not funny to play for those who get locked down by these cards. Of course they are! But they are instructive: they teach children not to play one single color!

Evil card. This card and others like it such as tsunami or flashfire should never have been made. They aren't good enough for tournaments but when successful they break the game to casual players with known decks. If a friend has a mono white deck it doesn't matter how good it is if they lose all their lands. The great thing about Magic: The Gathering is the almost unlimited possibilities and creativity available. This card limits that. There is a reason you do not see these effects anymore.

@Zoah:

As shadygrove said, them having to keep 4 mana open all the time is a huge disadvantage. If I see my opponent tapping mana for something, but they still have cards in their hand and untapped lands, I immediately think that they will cast an instant, and I should probably keep at least 3 mana open. Of course, sometimes you really need to cast a frost titan or Lorthos, in which case I make sure I have a creature that can counter or a force of will. As a blue player, I tend to tap out all my lands only under extreme circ-umstances or if I can counter without paying mana. This card may at first seem very deadly, but if you do run control blue, you should almost always be able to cast a counterspell.

Someone tried to spectral shift me once. I used reverberate and they scooped. True story.

@fastpond:
not 'target blue player', but 'all blue players'.

Quicksilver Fountain and Power Conduit/some other 'remove a counter' card makes this very playable against non-blue opponents, though it can be slow without extra upkeeps. As an added bonus however, you can pump up your creatures while you wait.
