Death counters are a type of counter introduced in Visions. It acts as a tracker for sending a creature into Exile when it dies.
Description[ | ]
Death counters first appeared on Bogardan Phoenix in Visions. It is a creature with an ability that returns it to the battlefield on its death with a Death counter. Then when it dies again with the counter on it, it is exiled instead. Their usage in this case represents the power of a phoenix to reincarnate itself on its death.
