Glyph counters are a type of counter introduced in Legends. They temporarily freeze a creature for a turn per counter.

Description

Glyph counters first appeared on Glyph of Delusion in Legends as unnamed counters which were later given errata to Glyph counters. It is an instant which places counters equal to a given creature's toughness on it that was blocked by a Wall during the turn. They cause the creature to not untap during the turn with one counter being removed during the player's upkeep.

Trivia

In Magic Online, the counter is colored orange as its considered a negative effect and it shares an icon with Awakening, Echo, and Luck counters.[1]
