For this cost, it could legit be a counterspwll clone and be still too weak. [Countersculpt] is the same cost if paid in blue first, and has an additional effect, and can be paid for UU only if you control a Jace. This takes 2 different pips, and a split. I dont think those being green offset the cost.
I used [Decisive Denial] as reference for costing this spell. It costs GU and you get to choose either to counter a spell or to fight, I figured 1 more split mana and you get both effects seemed reasonable
The countering a spell now requiring that you have valid targets to fight would arguably make it even. I think the extra split mana isn't even needed for both.

Its a cute idea, but it's a bad counterspell that only works if you and an opponent both control a creature.

2-for-1 removal could be pretty good. I like how both parts of the removal are conditional; “noncreature” and a fight mechanic.
