My "Ezuri, Claw of Progress" Commander deck, a control version that uses "counters" in two senses; putting counters on my creatures (and other permanents) and using counter spells to defend my plays and disrupt my opponents. The deck also makes use of the "Proliferate" mechanic, to increase the rate of counter production for a variety of purposes, including boosting experience.
