Counterspell

Instant

Uncommon

Counterspell is popular in Commander because it is a clean, two mana answer to almost any spell. Blue decks want cheap interaction to stop combo pieces, protect their own engines, and win counter wars at key moments. Its simple text and easy colour requirement make it a default include in many blue control and tempo lists. High inclusion numbers on staple lists reflect how often players reach for it when building reactive blue decks.
