Do +1/+1 Counters Remove -1/-1 Counters in MTG?
In Magic The Gathering, +1/+1 counters and -1/-1 counters effectively cancel each other out. So, if you have a creature with +1/+1 counters on it and it gets -1/-1 counters (maybe from an opponent's spell or ability), for each pair of +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters, they're removed from the creature. This can be a handy trick to remember during gameplay!

Actually, +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters do remove each other, but don't forget that this can sometimes mess with your strategy. If you're buffing up your creatures expecting those +1/+1s to stick around, a well-placed -1/-1 can clear them away quicker than you can say 'counter war'.
IDK why people complicate this. +1s and -1s simply don't mix. They cancel out and poof! Gone. Keep it simple, folks.
