add a little extra to justify the extra color.

by Alex:

Ooh, so now it's a Manamorphose (without cantrip) as well as a tweak on Gainsay?

A bit wacky, but seems somewhat disconnected, a bit "hot glue gun" as Maro puts it.

I'd suggest that this say "up to one target spell" so that you can use it as just a manawash if you want to.

by Vitenka:

A renaming would fix the flavour though - picture it as sucking a spell in so that you can use its mana yourself.

by Alex:

Like Mana Drain or Plasm Capture. Makes sense.

by Circeus:

@Alex Actually it's more of a colorshifted Flashfreeze, but unlike the other spells in the cycle, it had nothing to justify the {r/g} aspect, and it's HARD to work in a {r/g} (hybrid) thing in a counterspell! My only other options I can see are "damage to flying" and "uncounterable"...
