What if the heaven mimic casts 20th level counter spell

The wizard will counterspell their counterspell

Damm can't argue that logic

What if the heaven mimic can cast counterspell at will though? It could then return the favor to the wizard, potential causing the infamous counterspell feedback loop.

Would that count as a victory as long as there is always some person there to cast counterspell? I feel that would create a new religion where people become priests and make pilgrimages to this place to take up the holy duty of casting counterspell at the sky for like a week then rotate out.

The mimic uses a legendary action to counterspell the wizards counterspell

Well the highest you can cast that is 9th but have the wizard counterspell their counterspell or you use your reaction to cancel their counterspell with your own counterspell if you prepped it.

Can you do that? That would imply taking a reaction within your own action.

Yeah it was ruled you can counterspell a counterspell targeting you original spell casting in sage advice.

Ah. I see this is well trodden ground. I've been playing ttrpgs for ages but my current campaign is the first time I've played DnD.

It's been an argument for longer than I've been alive lol

The idea that you can cast two spells (main spell and counter spell) simultaneously without a feat baffles some people.

(Sometimes I feel like this is the main reason you are only allowed one reaction per round of combat.)

No, but they can still seduce it. It's gotta have at least one hole.

You are NOT going to like how mimics procreate in my world.
