Trial and Error (CMB2-68) is a red Elemental instant from the Mystery Booster Playtest Cards 2021 set. It deals 3 damage to any target and, if it’s countered or fizzles, you may copy it and choose new targets for the copy. This copy-on-counter effect lets the spell still provide value against counterspell-heavy or target-invalidating interactions.
