Um?! A Rune Snag that cantrips? That's crazy good. Cryptic Command was most often used in its Dismiss mode. I think this needs to be 3 mana. Compare with Mana Leak and remember how much control players love drawing cards!

Considering Miscalculation still has a star rating of 4.08? Yeah, this seems excessive.

Note: Alex's suggestion to add {1} would still mean this card is strictly better than Runeboggle. Runeboggle only has a star rating of 2.083 in comparison, but it's worth noting.

Heck: Arcane Denial is this and lets the guy you countered draw two! Force Void only Force Spikes and is a slow-trip. Bone to Ash and Exclude cost more and only hits creatures! Confound is this with another limitation; but low cost. Miscalculation is either half of this, not both. Remand unsummons instead of countering; so maybe that's an option? Spell Contortion is bonkers... Squelch is similar, and great.

Huh. The card I was looking for doesn't exist. I would suggest: Target spells controller may allow you to draw a card. Unless they do, counter that spell.

Hm, no, V's suggestion would just be Reach through Mists 90% of the time.

I was wondering about mentioning Runeboggle. I think a strict improvement on Runeboggle (counter-unless-pay {2}, cantrip, {2}{u}) would be okay. Maybe {1}{u}{u}.

Woah, you're right, too powerful. Some of these I made almost a year ago and didn't even look at before uploading them.
