I still think having a counter that is both a -1/-1 counter and an Ink counter is.. odd.
In the other version, having multiple Squids increases their effectiveness. We could have more Squids that dish out Ink counters and have different effects on creatures who have them
Inky 2UU
Creature - Squid
Creatures with Ink Counters can't block unless their controller pays (1).
Whenever <THIS> becomes blocked, put an Ink counter on all blocking creatures.

How about just using -0/-1 counters
2,T: put a -0/-1 counter on target creature
All creatures with a -0/-1 counter can not block or attack alone.
All creatures with a -0/-1 counter don't untapped unless it's controller pays 1
All creatures with a -0/-1 counter must attack if able or be sacrificed
etc........

Hmm..... I like this concept. Actually, I REALLY like this concept.
A certain type of counter that can be given bonus or detriments depending on the effects of outside cards.
I suggest we remove the "Ink" concept of the counter and re-package this mechanic entirely. Any suggestions?

Sounds like a fine solution to me..

Well, how about calling them Plague counters? Or has that been done already?
Certain colors (black especially) can benefit from these counters while other colors are hindered in some way...

Hmm.. I like the idea of a certain type of counter that does different things for different colors. Plague counters already excist (Plague Boiler, Traveling Plague and Withering Hex) but we could think of something ourselves right?

Sorry guys, getting ready to start this new job and have not updated any of my stuff yet. I will try to get it done by the end of this week and edit the post accordingly. May even try to get it up on the email site!

New idea:
What are you holding? BG
Enchantment
At the beginning of your upkeep, choose two target creatures you control. One of them gets +X/+X until end of turn, the other -X/-X until end of turn, where X is the number of cards in your hand.
A wording disaster. Needs some help quickly!!

How about this?
Wat are you holding?
BG
Enchantment
At the beginning of your upkeep, target creature you control gains +X/+X until end of turn, where X is equal to the number of cards in your hand. Then, another target creature you control gains -X/-X until end of turn. If control less than two creatures during your upkeep, ignore this ability.
If think I just made the wording worse...

No, you are on to something. The word another should do the trick.

You don't have to mention it does nothing when there aren't two creatures.
