I would rarely (as a GM) let this happen. Yeah it's cool to one-shot something occasionally but in the 'epic final battle' I try my hardest to make it a fun challenge that all can particulate in.
I've been on the 'feeling like poo....' side before when we finally came upon the 'big boss demon' in a home D&D campaign and our cleric cast banishment and the demon rolled a 1 on his save. I'd have fudged it as DM but that's me
