Topi’s Daily Card #1149: Spell Swindle

Now this card is an amazing artifact maker and counterspell. To me it kinda replaces Plasm Capture in any UG deck. Sure, it may cost one more mana, but the color requirement is easier and you’ll have a whole bunch of artifact mana rocks to use instead. This boosts any artifact deck, and the fact the mana is sandbagged to use later if you don’t use it right away is pretty awesome. There’s tons of utility for this counterspell, so it’s something I’m going to slide into one of my decks, probably my Grixis Partner Artifacts deck. Some people look down on more expensive counterpells, I say that’s where the real fun is.

Spell Swindle has a ruling on it saying you still get treasures for uncounterable spells. Is the same true for Plasm Capture?

Yes, you'll still get mana. Plasm Capture's delayed trigger doesn't care if Plasm Capture countered the targeted spell, and so you'll get your mana as long as the spell was still a legal target when Plasm Capture resolved.
