So, I'm assuming that putting this card into a Knowledge Pool is considered...how you say...'a really dick move?'

Errata: If you can read the full rules text of this card without stuttering, counter target counter.

One of my favorite Un cards ever! I'm looking to get this for my Cube draft piles because it can actually be used (and not be obnoxious like many Un-cards).
This card's ability could easily be printed in a "real" set, with a higher mana cost of course. 3UU or 4UU(on a stick) seems appropriate.

There are four possible things that may be done with this card. They are as follows:
1) A player counters a spell.
a) That player may counter the next spell that is cast.
b) That player may put a counter on a permanent, limited to a type of counter already on that permanent. (I assume this card follows proliferate rules, but this is Unhinged, so perhaps not.)
2) A player casts a spell that, when it resolves, enters the battlefield with counters on it — for example, a planeswalker or an Arcbound creature.
a) That player may counter the next spell that is cast.
b) That player may put a counter on a permanent, limited to a type of counter already on that permanent.
Hope this helps anyone who was confused about this card's functionality. Do note that you may also choose to do neither, but you would need to wait until both a spell is cast and a permanent enters the battlefield with counters to determine that you will do nothing.

Whenever you counter a spell you get to counter the next spell played for free?? AND every permanent you play comes in with an extra counter? Wow even if it is confusing this card is pretty good.

Whenever a player plays a counterspell or a spell that comes into play with counters on it, that player may either counter the next spell played or put a counter on a permanent.
It's not entirely Magic syntax, but it's legible. Enjoy.
But not entirely correct, because it would also trigger on Lightning Storm

I think I've nailed the wording on this using current syntax.
Whenever a player casts a spell that counters a spell on the stack or whenever a player casts a permanent spell that would cause the permanent which resolves from that spell to enter the battlefield with one or more counters on it, that player may counter the next spell played this game or choose a nonland permanent with one or more counters on it that entered the battlefield as a resolved permanent spell or a land with one or more counters on it that entered the battlefield as the result of a land play and give it another counter of a kind already there.
I don't think it makes anything less confusing at all.
