if you play Flare against a counterspell, the counterspell will trigger first and counter the Flare. Shouldnt flare destroy the secrets first?
Also, I played misdirection against an 8 attack kingsbane, but he still attacked me for lethal with the kingsbane and the secret never went off! Is misdirection only for minions?

No, Misdirection works for attacker being minions or hero. But there are several circumstances in which Misdirection won't trigger, see wiki, for instance
Misdirection will not trigger if there are no defensive targets available which the attacker could be redirected to after previous effects are finished. For instance, if Explosive Trap triggers first, mortally wounding all possible targets for Misdirection, Misdirection will not trigger.[2]
Misdirection, like Freezing Trap, will not trigger if the attacker is neutralized by a previous effect, specifically if it has left play (such as by a return to hand effect), is mortally wounded (0 or less Health), or is being destroyed (such as by Vaporize).[3][4]
Also
Counterspell will successfully counter Flare
Many are not happy with that, but that's the design decision from Team5

Oh right, Misdirection can not hit attacker nor original defender...
