About Overwhelming Intellect

Overwhelming Intellect, Instant, designed by Alex Horley-Orlandelli first released in Jun, 2005 in the set Saviors of Kamigawa and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 3.07.

This card, Overwhelming Intellect, would be most beneficial in a control deck that focuses on disrupting the opponent's creatures while drawing cards to maintain card advantage. While it provides a unique effect of countering a creature spell and drawing cards equal to its mana value, there are potentially better options like Cryptic Command or Force of Will, which offer more versatility and immediate impact. However, Overwhelming Intellect could still see play in specific metagames or as a budget alternative in certain decks that rely heavily on card draw and disruption.
