Each player gets 1 spell/ability action per chain. Attacking is not either of these. To further provide examples regarding Star Crusher here, let's use examples, where Player A has Star Crusher set and Player B is the one casting spells.

1. Player B decides to cast Dragonic Grimoire during their main phase. Player A responds with Star Crusher as they are allowed to play one counter ability in response to the activation of the opponents card.

2. Player B is attacked by Player A and casts Green Dragon Shield. Player A responds with Star Crusher as they are still allowed to play one counter ability is response to the activation of the opponents card.

3. Player A casts Art of Explosive Hades Fall, Player B responds to this activation by casting Breathen Gard to negate the activation of Hades Fall. As Player A already has a spot in the chain as the activator of Hades Fall, they are unable to activate Star Crusher and therefore can not stop the spells negation.
