Do copy effects copy counters in MTG?
Nope, copy effects in Magic The Gathering don't copy counters. When you copy a creature or any other card, you're just getting a copy of the card as it is printed, minus any counters, enchantments, or equipment attached to it. Think of it as hitting the reset button on the card - you're getting the basic, out-of-the-box version.

Short answer: No. Copy effects only copy the card's original text, not any modifications like counters.
Actually, it depends on what you're copying. If you're copying a card that's already on the battlefield, then no, counters don't get copied. But if you're copying a spell that puts counters on something as it resolves, then yes, the counters are part of what's being copied. Context is key!
