This costs 2 less if it targets a blue spell.

Counter target spell unless its controller pays 3.

Interesting to compare Mystical Dispute to Gainsay and Jace's Defeat. Soft counter instead of hard counter, but it also costs less, and has significantly more flexibility. Seems sideboard-worthy in Standard, although Dovin's Veto makes trying to win a counter war a bit less appealing.

Is this referencing any tale in particular?

If people played servant just to have access to a 1-mana conditional counter, that would be the least of our problems... :)

Alternate flavortext: "Look here landwalker, I may lack legs, but I'll still kick your ass."

As for the card itself, seems like a solid alternate to mana leak.
