counterspells
Arcane defensive interruptions
Counterspells are magical incantations or actions that neutralize or reverse another spell.
The term belongs primarily to fantasy games and fiction, where casting a counterspell at the right moment can block an opponent's magic: He held his counterspell until she began her incantation.
The verb counterspell follows naturally: I'll counterspell whatever she casts.
