One of the most balanced classic cards. Easy to play around too with cheap spells. Mage got a lot of overpowered secrets like draw 3 cards if no damage was taken. counterspell is absolutely fine.

Counterspell is not a bad card, even if both copies are played. I’ll take a control mage here over a blue deck in Magic: The Gathering any day.

If he had all these secrets up, the problem was not counterspell.

Yes, I know, it’s called wild:P

There is no way to play around Counterspell, though.
Unless you got 1 specific card out of 1000.
Odds don’t seem good, eh?

So you don’t run any low cost spells to test for counterspell?

Sounds like you ran in to a secret mage and that is kind of their ting.

Save the coin if you have it then.
