Title: Psycic barrier
Post by: GoJuDragon on August 03, 2012, 12:33:49 AM
How come no 1 plays {psycic barrier} i mean, it seems fantastic to me. Is it cuz of the {U}{U} mana cost?
Share ideas here please

Partly because it's double-blue, so not splash friendly, and partly that it can only counter creatures, where other counters like {mana leak} can counter any spell for the same mana cost. It's just
Not that versatile, and the loss of 1 life isn't going to make any impact on the board (or the game at all much of the time).

Probably the two blue. Essence scatter I more versatile I guess. One damage for the forced blue is ok.

I like the flavor text on it.
