What it does
Counter target spell. Clash with an opponent. If you win, at the beginning of your next main phase, you may add an amount of colorless mana equal to that spell's mana value. (Each clashing player reveals the top card of their library, then puts that card on their choice of the top or bottom. A player wins if their card had a greater mana value.)

Where it came from
Scattering Stroke was released in 2007 as part of the Lorwyn set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast, the set was designed to explore a whimsical, folklore-inspired plane heavily influenced by Celtic mythology. The card functions as an instant-speed counterspell, capturing the tactical, reactive nature of blue-aligned magic within the game's expansive mechanical framework.
The artwork for this card was created by illustrator Randy Gallegos, who aimed to depict the magical essence of a spell being intercepted or dispersed mid-cast. His contribution reflects the broader art direction of the Lorwyn set, which emphasized vibrant colors and distinct creature types. Upon release, the card became a standard inclusion for players utilizing blue decks, appreciated for its efficiency and its thematic alignment with the set's focus on manipulating the game's complex stack of interactions.
