"Find me cards equivalent to: Spell Burst"

Equivalent cards to Spell Burst (Instant, U, counters spells, scalable, some form of reuse):
1. Capsize — Instant, U, has Buyback, though it returns permanents, not counters spells.
2. Repeal — Instant, U, variable X cost, returns nonland permanents.
3. Condescend — Instant, U, variable X, counters target spell unless its controller pays X, plus Scry.
4. Syncopate — Instant, U, counters target spell unless its controller pays X, exiles if countered.
5. Mana Leak — Instant, U, counters unless pays {3} (not scalable, but similar function).


Reason: No other blue instant does the exact scalable hard counter & buyback of Spell Burst, but these are the closest in color, type, and effect.
