# Counterspell (Duel Decks: Jace vs. Chandra) Counterspell remains Magic's most iconic permission spell, and this Duel Decks printing represents a significant reprint in the card's history. Collectors value it primarily as a functional copy rather than a chase variant, since the set prioritized accessibility over premium treatments. The nonfoil version is straightforward to acquire and serves collectors building playable decks or completing set collections. While not rare within the Duel Decks product itself, this printing matters because it made Counterspell available outside Reserved List constraints, appealing to players seeking affordable copies. Collectors generally view Duel Decks printings as practical rather than collectible, though completionists still seek them for set documentation purposes.
