Also compare this to Lifeforce (GG: Counter target Black spell). Yes, definitely too expensive. |
I have to disagree: this enchantment makes ALL your cards into a bit more expensive counterspells that can counter ANYTHING. It has to be expenve, otherwise, it becomes broken.
Also remember that counterspells are only limited to 4 per deck, also if u can manage to put enough counters in this enchantment and have enough cards, then you can counter anything on anytime with 0 mana cost.

sorry, a similar card already exists:
Gratuitous Violence:

enchantment
if a creature you control would deal damage to a creature or player, it deals doudle that damage to that creature or player instead.

Don't forget that, your enchantment can be targeted by a number of spells and abilities, unlike a spell. For example:
quote:
Devout Witness
2W, Creature — Spellshaper 2/2, Mercadian Masques Common
1W, tap, Discard a card from your hand: Destroy target artifact or enchantment. |
You're also talking about a blue deck which needs lots of mana anyway, so it's not like you have a lot to spare.

The mana cost is not 0, it would be UUU according to you. Just because it has been prepaid doesn't mean it is free.

Now, im not trying to make a perfect card here. There are always cards that can be countered with other unexpected cards. Besides, if your opponent had Devout Witness in play, you would obviously not cast my enchantment.
"Also remember that counterspells are only limited to 4 per deck, also if u can manage to put enough counters in this enchantment and have enough cards, then you can counter anything on anytime with 0 mana cost."

I believe there is a misunderstanding here. I said, "if u can manage to put enough counters in this enchantment and have enough cards (that means after casting the enchantment and put some counters), then (afterwards) you can counter anything on anytime w/ 0 mana cost."
And of course im not saying that it is free because its prepaid, but it becomes free after you paid/invest on it. This is what I meant.

Why would you want to have a gloval beneficial enchantment card, if a local beneficial card at similar price alrealy exists?

Correction:
If there already exist a better card that only benefits your creatures at similar price, why would you create a card that would benefit ALL creatures?

take away haste?

I suggested underpowered cards also (The 4 for 4/4 get destroyed by red card)

That's your opinion and i respect it.

Sure, it is possible that your opponent can steal your permanent, but it rarely happens (specially to an enchantment), and it doesn't change the fact that Gratuitous Violence is much better than your intensive warfare.
