Why would you ever cast this without the cost reduction (mana cost: {2} {u} ) if it's always cheaper to reveal it first (activation cost + reduced casting cost: {1} + {u} )?

This is basically strictly better than Negate in two ways: You can reveal it early to make your opponent play around it while keeping one mana open, and you have a chance to cast the next copy cheaper.

by HijackAttack:

Good point. The goal of the card was to create tension around revealing it or holding it up, so I'll up the reveal cost to reflect that. Thanks for the input.
