It's a little minigame of chicken. The opponent can back out and let it be countered on the cheap; or they can force you to pony up, though at a ratio they're almost certain to lose.

The ratio makes this stupidly good; much better than Power Sink / Syncopate. I think it'd be fine (and really interesting) at {1}-to-{1}. It's like Power Sink but gradual, each player choosing how high to drive it. Probably 2/3 of times that was played, one player or the other won't have anything else to spend their mana on so they'd just pay as much as they could, but the other 1/3 makes it really interesting minigame.

Mm. As it stands, right now, this card is twice as powerful as Force Spike. Maybe it should start at {2}{u}? The wording is a bit confusing, too. "If they do not, counter target spell. If they do, you may pay {1}..." should clean things up.

I'd suggest it should probably have a wording using "repeat this process" rather than successive copies.

reworded, made 1-for-1, note it's creature spells, so weaker than force-spike in that way
