Fate Transfer

Instant

Move all counters from target creature onto another target creature.

Balaam__ Fate Transfer has a color identity. Hybrid mana is weird in EDH--every mana symbol that appears on a card contributes to its color identity, and you can't use a card that uses a symbol outside of your commander's color identity.

Basically, Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus counts as a card, and Fate Transfer counts as a card.

The Ozolith is a valid suggestion, though.

I don’t play Commander/EDH so I’m not sure these are legal, but The Ozolith and Fate Transfer are castable in mono

Maybe something like animating the lands with Soilshaper or Spike Tiller, then transferring counters with Fate Transfer? Not sure if that would work or not.

Off the top of my head, some possible cards for consideration: Evolution Sage , Fate Transfer , Fertilid , Solidarity of Heroes , Spike Feeder , Thrummingbird .

For future reference, the color identity of a card is determined by:

  • All mana symbols in its casting cost (including both halves of a hybrid mana symbol)
  • All mana symbols in its rules text (but not reminder text)
  • Any color-defining text in the rules text
  • Any color indicator on the type line (such as on the reverse face of a double-faced card)

So, per each:

  • Fate Transfer has a hybrid mana symbol. Both halves count, so it is both blue and black.
  • Bosh, Iron Golem has a red mana symbol in its rules text, so it has a red identity. Crypt Ghast's Orzhov symbol is in reminder text, so it doesn't count, and the Ghast is only black.
  • Older printings of Ancestral Vision contain the text "Ancestral Vision is blue." This sets the color identity even though there are no blue mana symbols on the card. It's important to note that Devoid ("this card is colorless") does not apply in this case, as Devoid cards still have mana symbols that inform their color identity.
  • Newer printings of Ancestral Vision have a color indicator on the type line (the blue circle). This sets the color even though there are still no blue mana symbols, and the "(This spell) is blue" text has been removed. These indicators are on the reverse of double-faced cards, so while Archangel Avacyn  Flip is white, its reverse, Avacyn, the Purifier, is red, making the card's identity red/white. This one trips up the most people, it seems.

You can not play Fate Transfer in a Skullbriar, the Walking Grave deck. The color identity of Fate Transfer is both and , which doesn't align with Skullbriar's color identity. A hybrid mana symbol adds both colors to a card color identity. The notable "exceptions" to this are cards with extort like Crypt Ghast. The hybrid mana symbol is in the reminder text, so I doesn't count.

Hope this helps!!

Wasn’t sure if I could because Fate Transfer has a Dimir Symbol and not a black mana symbol

Oh and lets start looking for Nesting Grounds combos. Since Hex Parasite and plain old proliferate already exists for when you just want to remove or increase counters on a single permanent, let's first and foremost go for combos where you either move a counter from a permanent which doesn't want it to one that does, or from a permanent which can easily produce a counter to one where it's harder to get started (after which it's probably easier to just proliferate). Also note that Fate Transfer and Leech Bonder already got creature-to-creature moving covered.

Decree of Silence + Saprazzan Skerry cycle

Chance Encounter + Gemstone Caverns

Thing in the Ice  Flip/Dark Depths/Woolly Razorback + Iceberg

Sagas + Myth Realized/Scroll of the Masters/Mind Unbound

Cheap level-up cards + expensive level-up cards (meh)
