If I'm holding Abandoned Hall and I play Discipline but my opponent plays Defy, and then I play Defy, does my opponent still get +1 for playing Defy on that battlefield even if I defy it?
No. Your opponent does not get +1 Might from Abandoned Hall — their Defy was countered, so it is not considered "played" for Abandoned Hall's trigger.
Here's the sequence:
- You play Discipline. Opponent plays Defy targeting it.
- You play Defy targeting opponent's Defy.
- Your Defy resolves first (LIFO), countering opponent's Defy.
- Opponent's Defy is removed from the chain without resolving — it's treated as never having been "played."
According to RiftJudge FAQ #11280 (and confirmed by #10646, #10093, #4905), a spell that is countered fails to meet the "when you play a spell" trigger condition on Abandoned Hall. The ability never goes on the chain for your opponent.
Your Discipline will then resolve normally, and you may give a unit +1 Might from Abandoned Hall when it resolves.
