Legendary Creature - Human Bard
Whenever you cast an instant, sorcery or saga from your hand, you may exile that spell and then search your library for a card with the same types and colors with mana value equal to or less than the exiled spells. If you do, you may cast it without paying its mana costs, then shuffle your library. Exile that card instead of putting it anywhere else.
2/2
Since he makes MTG parody music videos, so I tried to emulate that by allowing him to make "parody copies" of spells. I know that doesn't truly capture the essence of it, but I thought it came close.
The absurdity of his power level is that you could hold onto a spell such as Quick Study in order to cast Whirlwind Denial
In order to balance the fact that literally every single spell in your deck potentially becomes a tutor, both the originally cast card and the tutored one become exiled.

The Most Powerful, Truest, Ultimate Counterspell
Instant
This spell can't be countered.
Counter all spells or abilities your opponents control on the stack.
"That's a real nice infinite combo you got there... It'd be a shame..."
I think this would count. Whirlwind Denial is legal (and what I used as reference to word it well).
Repeat with more legal un-set cards, this is fun.

Polaris on Countering Copied vs. Original Spells
3 years ago
Doublecast sets up a delayed triggered ability. The next time you cast an instant or sorcery that turn, it will trigger to make a copy, and since the trigger doesn't target, it will also use the last known information of a countered spell to make its copy.
It's less versatile than Reverberate, but plays better into countermagic because your opponent knows you're going to cast another spell, and they won't be able to fully stop what you're doing with a single counterspell no matter how they use it, unless that counterspell is something like Whirlwind Denial.
Gidgetimer on EDH- HAPATRA - Your opinions
3 years ago
It was not my intent to "get you", much less on a technicality. I was merely pointing out that a single Stifle would work and Flusterstorm wouldn't. Whirlwind Denial (after the Gravestorm ability resolves) would also effectively hard counter the line of play as you mentioned. It is a really cool interaction for a rarely used card, I just wanted fellow Hapatra players to be aware of what works and what doesn't when an opponent tries to stop it.
Polaris on Double Major with no target
3 years ago
No. If a spell has targets, you can only cast it if you can find something for all of its targets. You can't cast Double Major or for that matter pretty much any counterspell without anything on the stack, though you could cast Whirlwind Denial on an empty stack since it doesn't have a target. You can also use abilities like Vivien, Champion of the Wilds' +1 ability without targets, since they specify "up to one target," which means you can choose to have zero targets.
This is also why cards like Decimate haven't been the most popular in tournament play, but power up significantly in multiplayer formats where it's easier to find all of its targets and less likely you'll have to hit something of your own and/or just be unable to cast.

RaidenShogun69 Whirlwind Denial is just as high in MV as Disallow and Sinister Sabotage but does far better in countering practically everything on the stack.
