This spell functions just like the counterspell aspect of Dispell Magic, save that you may only add a maximum of +5 to your dispell check.



What do you think? It's a nice, simple way to add the aspect of counterspelling to your game without the entire fuss of having exact spells prepaired in order to counterspell.

omg overpowered :P

Seriously, I think it should be second or third level, because you can cast this at any time.

Even better. But he limited to counterspelling too, and a maximum dispel bonus of +5, so giving it the same spellslot as a quickened dispel may be a bit harsh.
