Extinguish

Instant

Counter target sorcery spell.

chosenone124 nobody is using Extinguish over Negate. Negate is strictly better, in every possible scenario.

Should have used Extinguish instead of Negate

But you forgot the few things blue adds to EDH which makes it feared a little more than green:

Control- specifically sorcery speed counterspells are fun but counters and control is fun. Mystic Denial, Extinguish, Preemptive Strike specifically.

Draw power-blue has almost a monopoly on draw power and deck management. Just saying. It offers a lot more than green for this department.

Phasing- Yeah. this old mechanic. People hate it. Judges hate it. What can be funnier than banding to a man land, than phasing out the banded man land.

Lastly, going wide with creatures is often worse in commander since board wipes hurt a lot more. Blue lets you recover a lot more easily but the surprise is less when your commander has that mechanic written on it.

Just my $0.02 though.

Cards to cut:

Blue Elemental Blast isn't relevant enough. Not enough red spells.

Envelop is pretty meh. Not enough sorceries out there.

Evasive Action is a bad Force Spike.

Extinguish is a worse Envelop

Flash Counter is a meh Dispel.

Mental Misstep is only good for laughing at the Sol Ring player. Very likely to be useless otherwise.

Outwit will rot in your hand.

You added Spell Blast twice. Cut one.

Spell Snip is a really meh Force Spike.

Spellshift doesn't actually stop their spells. Not really great.
