Title: Moving charge counters...

Oh wise ones, I beseech thee...

A friend gave me a Surge Node as part of a Christmas present. Reading some infinite turn combos on here I spied the Magistrate's Scepter. Seeing as the Surge Node has enough charge counters on it to power up the Scepter twice, I was wondering if there were any cards out there that could move charge counters from one permanent to another.

Of course there are. There's always Fate Transfer + March of the Machines, Power Conduit, Giant Fan. Those are the things off the top of my head, but my guess is there are a lot more.

There's also proliferation. Inexorable Tide, Contagion Engine and Contagion Clasp. Also look up Throne of Geth.

Proliferation doesn't move counters, it increases the number of counters on something.

I was going to use Fate Transfer but it's only for creatures. Kinda bummed me out cuz it only cost 1.

...and then I looked up March of the Machines. Nice! But still, there's gotta be a card out there that does it without the help of anything else. Grrrr.

You realize you can just look up "move counter from ____ to ____" on magiccards or gatherer, right?!

Power conduit is probably what you want.

Still. You say counters I say proliferate.

But Pink, you read the entire Internet! Why bother with anything else? Lol

Usually I'll Google it and stumble upon the Gatherer but didn't have any luck. Figured I'd post this as I searched more. This card HAS to exist!

Gatherer has a pretty good search system.

They make it overly complicated though! I prefer magiccards!

Query just is simpler than a search engine, especially as you figure out search terms for the query.

Also magiccards.info isn't blocked at my school.

It did take me while to find out that typing - in front of something made it exclude that...! Probably because i never read the instructions/guide/thing!

Leech bonder is your answer. I've always loved untap abilities, and one costs go infinite with paradise mantle.

Hmm. Well, there's always the Paradise Mantle/Training Grounds/Gilder Bairn combo to use with the Scepter. Don't know why a "move all counters from one permanent to another" card doesn't seem to exist. Oh well. At least I found a nifty combo to add infinite counters. Thanks for the suggestions!
