[DGM] Render Silent - Fake or Found?

Versus any non storm deck you'd rather have Absorb for the same price. And Absorb sucks.

Could this be used in response to a cascade trigger to effectively counter both the original and cascaded spells?

Yes. It would be simply a better version of Double Negative. I can't imagine this being played in Legacy.

As I first saw it I was pretty amazed. But you are right, the CC is to high for Legacy.
Also, it can't counter a storm already on the stack, right? It needs to counter a setup spell before the actual storm card.
I wonder how it would have been if it were a fuse split card.

This is the only good use I've seen for this card. Besides some deck that wants to support Martyr of Sands and Force of Will.

[LOurs]

the card seems pretty bad for legacy.
Imo, a kicker for silence would have been better (a kinda counterspell with kicker for niche uses)

It should totally have been a Fuse card with counter target spell and Silence.

Agreed, that would have been nice.
