Great vs Midnight Banshee or cards before wither/infect, as well...search up "-1/-1 counter" for text.

If you get out an Avacyn, Angel of Hope or Elspeth, Knight-Errant's ultimate, then your creatures are immune to everything but exile and boardsweepers.
Somewhere out there, there's probably something that gives all your creatures shroud/hexproof. But I don't know it. If you can get something like that out also, then you evade everything but boardsweepers and forced sacrifice, but that's another story.
CREATURES FOREVER!

This is actually stronger against Wither than against Infect.
Infect creatures lose their infect abilities, but at least they still do normal damage.
Wither creatures do no damage at all, at least to your creatures. They trade their damage for -1/-1 counters, then fail to apply them.

@crazydave2132, @noobmag1: No. The -1/-1 counter is a cost. Since you can't put a counter on it, the cost can't be paid.

Oh Melira, and your ability to combo with a persist creature + anything with a dies or ETB trigger to create insanely stupid combos. :D

@Mistralis How about Asceticism? I had that and Avacyn out at the same time once in EDH. It was glorious.
Back on topic...This card (along with its friend Birthing Pod and its friend-of-a-friend Splinter Twin) make for some mean Modern combo decks. Should be relevant for a looong time.
