Summon Leviathan bug
Hello,
I encountered a bug when casting three steps ahead selecting the counterspell version and no other spree option targeting a summon: leviathan on the stack. It asked us if we were sure since summon: leviathan has a ward cost. We said yes because the ward ability does not apply on the stack and then it countered three steps ahead since we did not pay the ward cost all while it was on the stack. Thanks!

There was no other nonland permanent on the battlefield so it could not be that and they only had simic lands+basics.

@rezzahan. I can assure you it is from the ward because after we clicked yes it triggered the ward and popped up the do you want to pay the 2 (because as soon as it did weird stuff I turned on full control), then I said no because I did not have 2 mana and then the leviathan resolved.

When asked "are you sure?" when targeting a spell on the stack, that means, the spell is uncounterable for some reason. Ward, as you said, does not work on the stack, so Arena does not give that notification for a spell with ward on the stack. The most likely reason the spell could not be countered is a Cavern of Souls set to Leviathan.
