AI draftAI-generated draft analysis — not yet human-reviewed. Treat with healthy skepticism.

Limited summary

Six-mana counterspell that steals countered permanents — you get to cast their bomb for free later. Expensive but a genuine two-for-one swing when it connects with a big threat.

Roles

Archetypes

Play around this

Blue with six open late: casting your bomb into it means they untap and cast your bomb. Consider baiting with a lesser threat first.

Gameplay notes

Only worth the slot in slower decks. Aim it at the biggest permanent spell they'll cast — countering removal with this is a waste.

Key synergies

No notable synergies recorded — this card mostly stands on its own.
