One of the characters in my weekly dnd game couterspelled a 9th level casting from the bbeg, and we all reacted exactly like this!! It was amazing hahaha
The Caster was casting at 9th level spell she was casting a 3rd level Counterspell, which means she had to roll a 19 DC to beat the Caster. She needed to roll a 14 plus 5 to make the check. She rolled a 20! Fuckin rad! 😝
Technically yeah the counter spell against her counter spell should have succeeded. He didn't need to roll for it. But for the story moment, it was far more satisfying how it went.
Warlocks cannot counter spell at 9th lvl so for any lower spellslot she would have had to roll anyway. So 3 is the best option. The oppoent? I am.not sure. Tbf, 3rd lvl counterspell destroys 3rd lvl counterspell, but Matt chose to roll for the narrative.
Laudna at this point has 8 levels in Sorcerer and 3 in Warlock so she has a max of 4th level spells. Don't know if she had used up both of her 4th levels or was just saving them but it would have been the same effect when counterspelling Matt's 9th level anyways. As for why Matt didn't use a higher level, he probably didn't want to ruin the fun moment they just had. He rolled when he didn't need to so he probably didn't want to prolong the battle when they had pretty much beaten him anyways.

C1 Travis: My wife's dice superstitions are so stupid.
C3 Travis: THE MAGIC WORKS! IT WOOOORRRRRRRKS!
HE’S STARTING TO BELIEVE!
Love how "Counterspell" explodes out of her, and then instantly covers her mouth as if she can't believe she said it.
Laura used the force
I think she was saving it for a dimension door
Somewhere, a gnome bard feels a magic disturbance and smiles in bittersweet memory of his own such counterspell.
The level of anger of not getting to use his spell just slowly washing over his face was amazing to see. It looked like slow motion
I love how Talisen just put his head down like he was expecting the worst, but the he puts his head up like ‘wait what did I miss?’ So funny!!
Also that clutch catch of Talisen as he caught Liam's tablet

Matt could of killed Fern and chose not to.
Wouldn't the 3rd lvl counterspell auto succeed against a 3rd lvl spell?

@@DrakeForReal2 and the attempt to counter her spell was at what level?

If it was going to do that he wouldn’t have let her roll. It’s more narratively satisfying this way.
@@lizbishop6955 yea but that nat 20 tho?
I don't understand why neither of them used a higher lvl counterspell
Warlocks cannot counter spell at 9th lvl so for any lower spellslot she would have had to roll anyway. So 3 is the best option.
The oppoent? I am.not sure. Tbf, 3rd lvl counterspell destroys 3rd lvl counterspell, but Matt chose to roll for the narrative.
@@Thegameshadow1 thx i didnt know for the warlock. Weird that matt decided to roll, the 9th lvl spell should have worked then... that changes a lot
Remember, Matt can call an audible if it fits narrative or if it pulls too far off fair.@@damiens4601
