Inspired by a discussion about cards directly mentioning the stack. There's some design space to be explored there, I think!
But this would function identically to "Counter target spell, split second" 99% of the time; so why not simplify it to that?
I agree there's space there, but I don't think this is it.
Sure, really niche, but I play almost exclusively multiplayer games with a local meta that includes lots of flashing creatures out in response to other stuff. It would impact those situations.
Only if those flash creatures are Mystic Snake or Draining Whelk. Everything else could just wait for this to resolve, then carry on as they were.
Sadly, WOTC deliberately avoids this design space so as not to confuse all the little kiddies fresh out of Yu-Gi-Oh.
