REPRINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's good but not literally Counterspell good. So therefor should be "good" enough to be included in standard.

awesome card, second-third best counter ever (counterspell being the number 1 counter)
admitadly a counter with strings is not great, but compared to more recent counters *cough* spell snip *cough* costing your opponent 3 more mana for their spell is pretty good
looking at standard spells, 1UU gets you cancel, hard counter, no strings, 1U gets you negate or essence scatter, both check the spell type, U gets you dispell or spell pierce, dispell is good for anti combat tricks, traps, anti counter magics, and spell pierce costs 1 less then mana leak and has 1 less block cost
this really needs a reprint soon

this isnt even close to being the best next to counterspell. without any mana burn anymore mana drain makes counterspell look weak.

Can become dead but adding 
mana to every spell is usually enough to counter anything..
