What would the result of this be? Non-D&D player here.
Trust issues, lol
The players were trying to bring their fallen comrade back to life (and back into the fight) but the DM opted to use an ability of the dragon to counter the spell, meaning dead dude stays dead.
Can't they just cast it again?
I don't know D&D but in Baldurs Gate, it's a pretty high level spell, so you might only have 1 or 2 uses. And even if you can cast it again, that's a high level spell slot that could have been used for damage or healing which is now gone.
And by the time your turn comes around again, the enemy will have had their turn and got their reactions back.
So they could just counterspell it again
They'd need the high level spell slots as well, is the only thing.
