by Alex:

Created for Challenge # 038, in response to jmg pointing out nobody had used Cancel's mana cost yet.

There are a number of counterspells with cost {1} {u} {u} . I was somewhat inspired in particular by Faerie Trickery: something that's a little better and a little worse than Cancel. Once I had the idea of tying it to card types, the particular pair of abilities were mainly chosen for the flavour.

by Jack V:

LOL. Yeah, I hadn't expected to see "counter non-instant spell" anywhere, but this fits very well, and fulfils the "comparable to cancel without being the same".

by jmgariepy:

Thumbs up for rock and roll. That's a damn fine replacement for any set's Cancel.
