Mana Drain and Vexing Shusher

[TracerBullet]

Pretty simple question, and I think I know the answer-


Player A has a Vexing Shusher in play.  Player A plays a 2cc spell, passes priority.  Player B declares Mana Drain targeting Player A's 2cc spell.  Player A responds by activating Vexing Shusher's ability.


Question: Does Player B get 2 colorless mana in their manapool at the beginning of their next mainphase?

==========
Mana Drain

      Color= Blue    Type= Instant    Cost= UU    LG(U1)
      Text (LG+errata): Counter target spell. At the beginning of your next main phase, add to your mana pool, where X is that spell's converted mana cost. [Oracle 2003/07/01]

==========

Vexing Shusher

      Color= Multi    Type= Creature - Goblin Shaman    Cost= (R/G)(R/G)    SM(R)
      Text (SM): 2/2. ; ~this~ can't be countered. ; {R/G}: Target spell can't be countered by spells or abilities.


I think so, as the second clause in Mana Drain is not predicated on the first.  However, confirmation/correction would be greatly appreciated.

Yes sir.  If drain resolves (which it does here), you get some mana.

[Cyberpunker]

I think you still do get the mana. Vexing Shusher makes the spell uncounterable not untargetible.

[IthilanorStPete]

You'll get the mana.

The Mana Drain still resolves, and attempts to do as much of its effect as possible. The same issue used to come up when playing Undermine, targeting an Obliterate (they still lose 3 life).

Compare to Remand, which requires that the spell actually be countered to return to hand.

This question was asked and answered 2 weeks ago and multiple people are still chiming in with the same correct answer that was given the day it was asked.  While helping out is great and all, repeating the same answer over and over doesn't help.
