Halo Fountain: Heh, by proxy? Anyway, two mana to draw one card per turn isn't super efficient, but beggars can't be choosers, and the versatility of being able to make a token or even win the game makes it a pretty good package. If you can get trough the color weight of the activated abilities, I can see this being interesting in boros with red's cheap "temporary tokens", e.g. Elemental Mastery

Urabrask: Prosper is trying hard not to laugh. 5 mana is a bit steep too

Ob: Finally rakdos eh? Though self-copying seems a bit weird. Without the Demon tribal part, it could have easily been a Tibalt card.

Cut of the Profits: Yeah this art is pretty sick. I have a soft spot for black cards flavored around gold

Vivien: Feels like kind of a black card with all the stuff that's going into your graveyard but okay

Rumor Gatherer: So why isn't this a Druid? Is the flavor that she's shrunk the big pets?? So weird

An Offer You Can't Refuse: New EDH staple. Two treasures is worth it to stop that key hose/bomb.

Incriminiate: Make Cannibalize Standard-legal you cowards!

Courier's Briefcase: Hm, wonder if there'll be a cycle of rainbow mana cards? Although I can see the reasoning of mono-green being able to produce other colors on its own. Get four of these and you can use the Treasure mana from three of them to generate 60% of the colors needed to draw three from the remaining one, yay...

Kitt Kanto: How is a "Mayhem Diva" at all white? Anyway, IDK if I can make room for this in my Marisi deck, pretty expensive and kind of in tension since untapped creatures could have probably just attacked instead

Anhelo: He's clever enough to not have enough power to be casualty-fuel himself

Kamiz: Yeah I have a hard time getting a sense of direction for this. Voltron with a bit more medium-big creatures?

Perrie: Permanents, not creatures. Dig trough your collection for weirdos like Coral Reef and Serrated Arrows

Ziatora: Sorry, Gleeock

Very nice. May I also suggest Coral Reef and Oko, the Trickster?

Just a quick one off the top of my head, some older cards have unique versions of +1/+1 counters that either give +1/+0 or +0/+1. Dwarven Armorer does both but there's also things like Coral Reef.

Amplify, which appears only in one set IIRC. Aven Warhawk. Basically just gives it bonus counters when it enters for each creature that shares a type.

Also note:

There are some very rare occasions where +/+ counters don't negate -/- counters. The best example for this would be Baron Sengir. He gives himself +2/+2 counters. This is important because even if he would have 2 -1/-1 counters placed on him, they would not negate each other because it is a single +2/+2 counter, not two +1/+1 counters.

This is also true for cards that give asymmetrical types of counters: Armor Thrull, Frankenstein's Monster, Clockwork Avian, Coral Reef.
