If you want to use the spell in a macro you need to name it"Mindgames(Venthyr)" instead of just Mindgames
I've searched a bit for the error to be found :DExample:
#showtooltip Mindgames(Venthyr)
/cast Mindgames(Venthyr)[EDIT] also make sure you don't have a icon selected (the questionmark)

Shift-clicking it in the Spellbook while the cursor is in the macro edit box should also insert that correct version.
Note that the reversed damage and healing is done instead of the corresponding damage/healing, making the effective damage/healing double what's listed.

A damage/healing denying ability that also triggers atonement for disc. Stack up atonements on the raid, hit mind games, right before an AoE burst, and watch as everyone gets a massive heal from the direct damage, and subsequent damage is ignored. Also turns enemy Resto druids into friendly affliction warlocks for a small period of time. Very Versatile on how one can use it, and it messes with people in pvp pretty badly.
It's dispellable. Ezclap
And it has a dynamic cap to how much damage/healing can be reversed given that it scales with spell power.
Interrupt it. Easy fix. Also, it's not "ALL healing and damage", just up to a certain amount or duration.
I always loved this spell, but I can't find ANY indication if it is still available beyond SL, though I think I have used it a few time in the Dragon Isles. I don't see it on either my priest list of spell or spec. Hmmm
Anyone know if the damage to healing and healing to damage have a shared number?
e.g. cap of reversal is 1000, target deals 50 "damage" that turns to healing. Does that mean the healing-deals-damage is also reduced by 50 to 950? or are they two separate caps?
100% fair and balanced ability. Negates ALL healing and damage, but not only that, it INVERTS them. And restores mana. Because %^&* you.
I smell big nerf already...
Can't believe this piece of *!@# spell survived shadowlands, and is on a 45 second cooldown, forcing either a dispel into Vampiric Touch or multiple globals of doing jack #$%^.
No chance this goes live. It would destroy PvP.
