Tokens and Counters

[henweigh]

I've never seen a discussion of the color pie that addressed this. Are there colors that are weak or strong in using counters? How about for tokens?

Also, are there colors if you want to hate tokens and hate counters?

:g:/:w: are primarily your token colors with :r: also using tokens but not as prominently.
See:
Entreat the Angels
Spectral Procession
Intangible Virtue
Avenger of Zendikar
Doubling Season
Assemble the Legion
Rise of the Hobgoblins

:g:/:w: will be the primary colors for counters with :u: getting a handful of cards mostly due to the Graft mechanic and Level Up.
See:
Ajani Goldmane
Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit
Decree of Savagery
Chorus of the Conclave
Novijen Sages
Lighthouse Chronologist


Also, are there colors if you want to hate tokens and hate counters?
Mostly :b:
See:
Aether Snap
Virulent Plague
Illness in the Ranks

All of the above completely ignores -1/-1 counters which are primarily :b:/:g: with :w:/:u: getting some support. Keywords to search for on Gatherer include Wither, Infect, Persist and Proliferate.
