When you cast this spell, any player may pay 5 life. If a player does, counter Dash Hopes.
Counter target spell.
"Focaliza la mente de un enemigo en lo que ya no tiene, y será más fácil sacarle más." —Hólux, chantajista de la FortalezaCuando juegues Frustrar las esperanzas, cualquier jugador puede pagar 5 vidas. Si un jugador lo hace, contrarresta Frustrar las esperanzas. Contrarresta el hechizo objetivo.
A player can’t choose to pay 5 life unless they actually have 5 or more life to pay.
When this spell is cast, its “when you cast” ability triggers and goes on the stack on top of it.
As the triggered ability resolves, the active player gets the option to perform the action. If that player declines, the next player in turn order gets the option. As soon as any player performs the action, the spell is countered, but the remaining players still get the option. If all players decline, the spell remains on the stack.
Legality follows the dated Scryfall catalog snapshot.
