Ish gud... gives life some denial-y powers , though I assume this means from both players combined, so it could come back to bite ya

Just wondering, why life? Oh it was just explained, sorry.

What does intuition and instinct have to do with nulling spell activation?

This. Making instinct negate spells is a bit stretching the theme imo.

Self conservation. They sense something coming (danger) and dodge away.

doesnt that thematically get broken when you have it include your own spells, and this also pertaining to spells that dont cause damage?

Intuition is not always perfect. Alternatively, i could have upped only dodge opponent's spells. thoughts?

i would limit it to your opponent's 'offensive' abilities, personally.  this would include things like nightmare, lightning, silence and firestorm, but not fractal, mitosis, spell shards or etc.  maybe cut down the tics to 1 | 2 respectively along with the cost a tiny bit.  thats just how i would approach it, my 2

I was going to say no to that for a reason, but saw that it's null due to it being a field effect. Searching new name.

Aww man, you beat me to it. I just had a similar idea.

It's a bit different than yours. Mine stays in the permanent area until the next opponent's spell, then cancels it and destroys itself.
moomoose thinks that it's similar enough that I should scrap it... I wanted to ask you what your opinion was.

My opinion : It's quite similar. However, the idea of countering spells is quite vast, so i'm sure you'll be able to make another permanent with a relatively similar aim. (for example, as an activated ability that counters spells.)
