Thats not to say you cant play any way to counter your opponents spells, but you need to run modal spells like Cryptic Command that can still be useful when cast during your upkeep a few turns later
It does not, for example, change when you may activate abilities that can be activated "only as a sorcery." The last ability cares only about the amount of mana that was actually spent to cast the spell, regardless of its mana cost
For example, Path of Exile 2 has built a strong following around its intricate economy, where players rely on trading and managing valuable in-game currency
That could be Arcanis the Omnipotent to draw your deck or Merieke Ri Berit to destroy all your opponents creatures
While at first glance this looks like your average four mana clone, pretty interchangeable with any number of blue cards for EDH players who want this effect, it's actually a fair bit better than most
Silver-bordered cards are usually from one of the Un-sets, which were designed to be silly and entertaining, not for actual competitive play
