Psychic Rebuttal

The narrowness is the point. This counters only instants and sorceries, and only the ones aimed squarely at you: a burn spell to the face, a targeted discard, an edict that names you, a Fireball with your name on it. Against the rest of the stack it does nothing, which is why a generic counterspell costing the same will always be the safer maindeck choice. What it offers instead is the spell-mastery upside: turn enough cheap instants and sorceries through your graveyard and the rebuttal stops being purely defensive, copying the spell it just stopped and redirecting it back the way it came. That flips the math of a one-for-one trade into a tempo and resource swing, the burn that was meant for your life total now pointed at theirs. The design lives at the intersection of two restrictions that both have to resolve before the payoff lands: the spell must target you, and your graveyard must be stocked. Meet only the first and you have an overpriced, conditional counter; meet both and you have a free copy of whatever your opponent paid full price for. It slots into decks already casting a flurry of cheap spells and looking for a reactive answer that punishes opponents for pointing removal or burn at the controlling player rather than at the board.
