I only have 3 questions about this card.

1) If I counter this when my opponent fuses it, does it counter both halves or only one?

2) If I cast this fuse card on 1 Hero creature, would I be triggering that cards Heroic ability twice, because these are technically 2 different cards targeting the same creature? Or would it trigger once because they are the same, physical card?

3) Do +1/+1 counters get removed before or after Heroic resolves?

Hello @AlphaWolfs

1) When you Fuse a spell, both halves count as one whole spell. You would be countering the entire thing.

2) This is "technically" and literally one card. The rules text on the card even says "both halves of this CARD." Again, a Fused spell is still just one spell. If you target one creature with both halves of this card, Heroic only triggers once. If you target two different creatures with each half of this spell then Heroic would trigger once for each of those creatues.

3) Heroic resolves before the spell because Heroic resolves when the creature is targeted by a spell you control. If you target a Heroic creature you control with a spell - even if the spell is countered - Heroic will still trigger.

Hope that helps!

I really think Take could have been 1 mana less, even considering the "fuse tax", just because it's basically sapping all the power from a creature that you've been working hard to grow. Give isn't bad at all, I see it as a mini Increasing Savagery.
That being said though, resolving a fused Give AND Take in a proper Simic deck will net you nothing short of six cards... fantastic card 4.5/5

The new card from Journey into Nyx "Sage of Hours" has a cool interaction with this. It has heroic +1/+1 counter, remove 5 counters take an extra turn. You can cast this on him, adding 3 counters + 2 counters then in response to Take, remove all counters from him and take an extra turn.
