Its Foretell ability provides flexibility and allows for strategic planning. While there may be more powerful counterspells in Magic: The Gathering, such as Counterspell or Cryptic Command, Saw It Coming's Foretell mechanic adds an extra layer of versatility. Whether it should see play would depend on the specific strategy and playstyle of the deck, but it could certainly find a place in decks looking for a mix of early game interaction and late game value.
