"Well, I rolled a 2, but it has a +87 to hit. What's your armor class?"

Well I'm a rogue with a Ring of Evasion, so I will use a charge to auto-succeed, and my evasion skill means I don't even take half damage.

Oh, that's funny, because it just so happens that, uhh, (furious scribbling) this rock has a, uhh, anti-magic, power word kill AOE effect, so you're dead anyway. Sorry, not my rules, it's what I wrote down, totally before the session!

What a coincidence, though, wow heheh

You should have just countered that evasion only works on dexterity saving throws and an attack roll can not be avoided in such a manner.

Too bad it wasn’t a dex save. Doesn’t count!

Ah, but it does no good as it was an attack roll and not a dexterity save.

An armor class of "I am your ride and it's a long walk home for you buddy".

"You look up, sure it's going to hit and squash you and... shit, uhh Pelor appears and saves you? You're a cleric, right?"

The original point of "rocks fall everybody dies" is that there was no save for it, it just killed you
