Oracle Text
Counter target spell. Clash with an opponent. If you win, at the beginning of your next main phase, you may add an amount of {C} 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.)

You can't add just some of the mana. You either add all the mana or none of it.

You decide whether or not to add that much {C} as the delayed triggered ability resolves at the beginning of your next main phase. You don't decide before then.

Price History
To study a single card is to glimpse the heart of a spell - a frozen moment of ambition, artistry, and arcane intent. Within each glyph lies a spark: a story untold, a duel turned, a destiny altered. Treat it not as mere parchment, dear seeker, but as a shard of the Multiverse itself.
