Disdainful Stroke is a better counterspell than Arcane Denial in Commander/EDH
Ok but I'm serious, hear me out: Counterspells in EDH are best used when you need to stop something from hitting the field/resolving in the first place, something a simple removal spell doesn't really answer, stuff like Craterhoof Behemoth, or just, board wipes in general. How many of those cards can you think of that cost less then 4 Mana? The only one that immediately comes to mind is Toxic Deluge which you really only see frequently in CEDH tables There's also Fire Covenant I suppose but that's even more of a CEDH exclusive board wipe, like show of hands how many of you have cast or seen someone play Fire Covenant, how many of you even knew it existed? The best thing? Disdainful Stroke is a 10 cent common! Stop letting your opponent draw 2 cards for free with Arcane Denial and just use this underrated gem.
A Word on Lier, Disciple of the Drowned
There seems to be some people who don't understand how Lier's first ability works.
To those who like to play with Lier, "Spells can't be countered" means exactly that. You put Lier on the battlefield, your spells can't be countered, my spells can't be countered, everyone's spells can't be countered.
Stop playing counterspells when Lier is on the battlefield. By your own rules of playing Lier, spells can't be countered.
Would you be able to counter spells if the controller of the spells has hexproof
Yes.
Hexproof just stops the player from being targeted by spells such as Duress or Shock. Counterspells target the spell, not the player, so they work just fine against a hexproof opponent.
