Flood counters in MTG are part of specific cards' mechanics that simulate flooding, affecting the game in various ways depending on the card. For instance, some cards might put flood counters on lands, turning them into islands or preventing them from being used for a turn. The exact effect depends entirely on the text of the card that introduces the flood counters. Always read your card!

Basically, flood counters are there to mess with your opponents or change the state of the game. Think of them as a way to control the flow鈥攑un intended鈥攐f the match. Don't worry; it's not as complicated as it sounds once you get the hang of it.

Not a fan. Adds unnecessary complexity to the game IMO. Just stick to the basics and enjoy.
