A deck with a whole bunch of weird counters. No +1/+1 or -1/-1 counters, but everything else is fair game.

CCO!

Brando and Ryan from Commander Cookout Podcast talked about this deck on episode 202 of their podcast!

Our game plan is to get as many counters as possible on our stuff as quickly as possible, through repeatable effects (such as cheap level-up-ers(?), Scavenging Ghoul or Tetzimoc, Primal Death) and proliferation. We then activate Tayam a bunch to recur anything we want, like vanishing creatures (Deadly Grub is great) and quests. We can even use cards like Opalescence or Xenic Poltergeist to animate our enchantments and artifacts so that we can rip counters off of them if we run out of counters on our creatures.

Eventually, we can hopefully win by clobbering our opponents with giant Gutter Grime tokens or Myth Realized. We could so some shenanigans and pull all the counters off Celestial Convergence at an opportune moment for the win. Honestly though, this deck probably won't win, we're just looking to do some wacky things with all the counters.

Thanks for taking time to look at this deck. If you are aware of any cards with weird counters that aren't in the deck, I'd love to here them!
