Are counters considered permanents or spells in MTG?
Nope, counters aren't spells or permanents. Think of them as stickers you put on cards to track changes. Don't confuse them with playable cards!

Counters in MTG are neither permanents nor spells. They're used to modify the stats of permanents or signify certain effects, like +1/+1 on a creature or indicating a poison counter. Basically, they're markers, not cards you play!
Counters =/= spells or permanents. They're just tokens or markers used in the game for tracking purposes. It's like using a pencil and paper to keep score in a game.
