It made Counterspelling more interesting.In 5th Edition, I don't see anything that says you WOULDN'T know what spell is being cast. It hasn't come up too often at my table [...yet], but I will rule that everyone knows what is being cast. There is no reason not to really. Also, for reference, I am usually a hard ass about rules and making it hard on the players. In this case I don't see the point of hiding the spell from the players as it targets them. Let the players know whether they want to use a reaction to Counterspell or not.</blockquote>
