How does a mimic counter an ability? Also, you should probably have the reminder text "mana abilities can't be targeted" on an uncommon, especially since artifacts tend to be mana rocks

reminder text: added

Chest artifacts have a theme of activated abilities that e. g. let you draw cards. The story this is trying to tell is that you open your Chest and rather than finding a treasure (draw a card) you find the Chest to be a monster. So you counter the activated ability that would hand out treasure as you put the mimic onto the battlefield.
