Note that the big drawback is the counterspell isn't automatic, its an opposed check. However, because it doesn't use slots, its useful against weaker mages.

Also would let a few mook mages shut down PC casters. Sure they don't have a great chance, but even 4-5 levels beneath you, a handfull of mook casters stand a decent chance of shutting down PC casters with that feat, if only because how much variation opposed d20 rolls allow for.Stalker0 said:Note that the big drawback is the counterspell isn't automatic, its an opposed check.

I believe this is the chain mentioned earlier found in FR books.Pyrex said:A 4th level Immediate casting time spell is pretty cheap for countering 9th level spells.
I'd suggest just using Reactive Counterspell (Magic of Faerun, Players Guide to Faerun; once per round Counterspell as an Immediate action. PreReq: Improved Counterspell, Improved Initiative).
