1. Mana Leak – Universal counter with similar mana cost.
2. Negate – Counters noncreature spells.
3. Essence Scatter – Counters creature spells.
4. Cerulean Wisps – Not equivalent, only changes color.

  • An effect that changes a permanent’s colors overwrites all its old colors unless it specifically says “in addition to its other colors.” For example, after Cerulean Wisps resolves, the affected creature will just be blue. It doesn’t matter what colors it used to be (even if, for example, it used to be blue and black).
  • Changing a permanent’s color won’t change its text. If you turn Wilt-Leaf Liege blue, it will still affect green creatures and white creatures.
  • Colorless is not a color.

    Rules

  • Countering a spell normally puts that card into the graveyard, so that card will be there to find and exile.
  • If the back face of a modal double-faced card is countered, you will not be able to exile any cards, including the one that you countered, because those cards have only their front-face characteristics (including name) in the graveyard, hand, and library.

    Counter target instant or sorcery spell. Search its controller's graveyard, hand, and library for any number of cards with the same name as that spell and exile them. That player shuffles, then draws a card for each card exiled from their hand this way.
