I don't know what i was thinking with that power. I dropped it to 5. Sure it's got a decent effect for blue but not worth the cost which I use to weigh it down to common.

We had this discussion on another card... I'm going to remention it here. You may not realize how often spells get countered in Magic. I'm pretty sure the average player doesn't know that when all the valid targets for a spell are gone, that that spell is countered. So, if I targeted a saproling with Flame Jab, then sacrificed the saproling, the ability would trigger.

I don't know what you want to do with this information. I think the reason we haven't seen too many "Whenever a spell is countered" cards because Wizards assumes that people will get it wrong. I do think it's a shame however, since it seems like a natural trigger for blue.

I did not know that. Wit that information I de-powered it to only opponent's instants.
