Counterstrike (Ex): At 16th level, whenever an enemy

within reach of the magus successfully casts a spell
defensively, that enemy provokes an attack of opportunity
from the magus after the spell is complete. This attack
of opportunity cannot disrupt the spell.

With the above wording, does this mean Counterstrike bypasses the usual limits of a whip not threatening the area it can reach? I can guess the intent is 'no', but based on the wording ('reach' Vs 'threaten')..?

Nice catch!

I am SURE that "in reach of the magus" is meant to say "that is threatened by the magus."

FAQ it anyway.
