Huh? A counter of what that does what?
Edit: Is this an activated targeted ability?

Yea sorry, This whole card creating thing is kinda new to me so the wording is probably off. This is an activated ability. I probably should put some sort of cost. Perhaps make it a life card and 1 ability.

I find this to be quite OP. With this card, a Dim shield essentially lasts 1 turn, and any other perm lasts 3 turns. It's a decent idea for soft PC, but it's a bit strong as a repeatable action IMO. In comparison, deflag costs 1 more quanta to destroy the permanent in 1-2 less turns, but it is not reusable.

Anyway, how would this work with Bone wall, Pillars/Pends, or Shard (or any other stacking perm i'm forgetting)?

@Jocko: A counter is the number of turns the perm has left, like Dim shield or Sundial's number.

Yea i figured it should probably have an off element ability. I just threw this together off a random thought and havent thought of balance quite yet.

I figure an off element repeatable action that is soft especially with a weak creature it probably balanced though. if this killed of the bat it cant do anything. and if it does manage to target a few perms 5 turns is a long time to last. Especially when most games last ~10-12 turns
