Other counterspells to consider that I didn't see covered in this video: Wash Away - Basically 1 mana to counter any commander, but there are a surprising number of things that cast from a place not from the hand (impulse draw for example, flashback, etc.). Spell Pierce - probably more of a CEDH card where mana curves are tighter. Glen Elendra Archmage - A bit mana intensive but it is 2 negates at baseline, and if you have synergies with +1/+1 counters, or flicker/reanimation, or something to remove the -1/-1 counters, you can do it over and over again. Mystic snake - similar to Glen Elendra archmage; mana intensive, but pair with instant speed flicker or something and it can be pretty cute. Foil - For very low budget. The alt cost is pretty steep (island + another card), but I think it's under $1. Counterflux - Mana intensive, but for decks that can't or don't run a lot of counters, this helps win counter wars.
I like Wash Away a lot to counter commanders and some other things. Spell pierce is very good!!!! Glen Elendra Archmage and mystic snake seem really good with flickering effects.
Good List. I think Delay deserves to be higher up. Three turns in Commander is an eternity. Turn Aside, I think is underrated and has some utility as a lower tier counter, if you care about protecting your commander from spot removal.
Oh my god the false argument about card advantage...according to the people that repeat it drawing a card is like drawing 3 cards in a multiplayer game cause youre up 1 card against each opp😂
In commander, Wash Away is busted. One mana to counter target commander.
Very limited, not worth it.

I think I did put delay a little too low.
I'm glad you liked the list
Its force of will. Like no contest
I think it's close with force of will and fierce guardianship.
Came here to decide which to keep between Negate and Dovin's Veto and you put them in the same tier hahah
Negate is generally better but Dovin's Veto will be better if you are playing in a meta with a lot of counter magic
Wait there's only 2 cons on your list. "1 for 1" and "Can't take out multiple threats" are the same thing.
