Rare blue 1-cost enchantment for a control deck: See Challenge # 167.

OK, blue control deck, enchantment. Can we get a counterspell? I'm not sure if this activation cost needs to be cheaper or more expensive. Having a counterspell visible means its less effective because everyone can play round it. But it also means you don't need to leave much mana open, and that opponent will have to set themselves back a fair amount even if you never use it.

And the game of "do I use it now?" "do I risk playing into it now?" is very blue-control-y.

Likely it's not interesting enough to be rare, though, but there's only so much I can put into a 1-cost enchantment.

Interesting 🤔
