charge counter mtg

In Magic: The Gathering, a charge counter is a type of counter that can be placed on a permanent (a card that remains on the battlefield) or a player.

Charge counters can have various effects depending on the card that grants them. For example, the card "Power Conduit" allows you to move charge counters between permanents, while the card "Azor's Gateway" requires you to have a certain number of charge counters on it before you can transform it into a powerful artifact.

To indicate the presence of a charge counter on a permanent, you can use a small token or die to represent the counter. Some cards also come with pre-printed charge counters on them, such as the card "Astral Cornucopia."

It's important to note that charge counters are different from +1/+1 counters or -1/-1 counters, which modify a creature's power and toughness respectively.
