Creature spells

[October31st]

Does a spell or activated ability that says "counter target spell" also count towards creatures being summoned?

Yes. Anything being cast is counted as a spell while on the stack.

Also, I'm moving this to Rules. The Help section is if you need help with app-related problems.

And here's a ruling for you:

111.1.: A spell is a card on the stack. As the first step of being cast (see rule 601, "Casting Spells"), the card becomes a spell and is moved to the top of the stack from the zone it was in, which is usually its owner's hand. (See rule 405, "Stack.") A spell remains on the stack as a spell until it resolves (see rule 608, "Resolving Spells and Abilities"), is countered (see rule 701.5), or otherwise leaves the stack. For more information, see section 6, "Spells, Abilities, and Effects."
