Close but doesn't work. You need blue mana to copy instants. The red only works for sorcerys and that is an instant. Sorry bro.

Unless there is a card that turns instances into sorceries. Which I doubt there is

And I might be mistaken but I'm pretty sure casting and copying are two different things, and you wouldn't get the 2 damage effect.

I'm pretty sure that if there was a card to turn instants into sorcerys, it would be the worst card ever. Or would INSTANTLY shut down counter and reactive decks!!!! Omg they need to print a card like that!!!!!

And when you copy a spell, it is like casting it again. See cards with "replicate" as a function and you'll see.

Really? I would have though it is casting the spell bc of cards with replicate. Interesting. Good to know. So then it is not a cast and therefore no infinite dmg.

GAVEL!!!!!!!

I always do something like this with {Isochron Scepter}.  I play it and imprint a sorcery almost every time.  So much so that I don't even use them anymore :P

Try replacing the guildmage with  {Duergar Mine-Captain} and  {Dual Casting}
