In the colors including creatures and all creatures in between or or colors, what is in your mind a creature that must be countered. I need to know all the creatures that if not countered it's a problem for everyone or at least one player. This of course is what I need to start brewing for surrak dragonclaw

Though boring in comparison to the splashy cards above, Laboratory Maniac is another card that ought to be countered if possible.

Ornithopter ...because no one playing Ornithopter is doing fair things. It's about sending a message. Send...a...message.

ooh, following along the lines of Selvala, Heart of the Wilds , massive mana dorks like Priest of Titania / Elvish Archdruid , Metalworker , Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary , or Heritage Druid can all be disastrous if they stick around, so destroy or counter ASAP.

Kiki-Jiki, the Mirror Breaker.

Protean Hulk.

Titans, so forth are scary and stuff but Kiki resolving frequently means GG.
