Evokes Withering Boon, which is a nice thing to do for a black countermagic card :)

I fear that it's too strong, though. Obviously life is easier to come by then mana, but burning for 2 isn't insignificant.

A natural comparison is Dwarven Driller. The big difference between the two is you can tap that once every turn cycle, whereas this one you can only tap on turns the opponent casts a creature. Which may be 40%-50% of turns in Limited, but still, it's a difference.

That's very true.
