That doesn't do anything, as this card targets a creature.
Not to mention that moving the counter from one artifact to another may not always save you in the end.

@infernox10,
getz19 idea could work if the phylactery counter was initially on an artifact creature to begin with, say Glassdust Hulk

this card is fantastic in the right deck. as cleavage said, it works wonders with -1/-1 counters. got your kitchen finks back with persist? move that -1/-1 counter onto an opponents 1/1. kill it and get another round of persist for your own creature. or, play noxious hatchling then move all 4 counters to an already worn down dusk urchins to draw 5 or 6 cards OR move those 4 -1/-1 counters onto your grim poppet. tons of possibilities

PLAYER: It seems my Phylactery Lich wants his phylactery counter back.
ORNITHOPTER: Don't worry; I'm sure I can get it to him before that Doom Blade resolves and kills me.

Good for levelers. Level up something with a cheap leveling cost, and then transfer it to something that takes a lot of mana to level. Also, if a creature with level counter is about to die, you can save the counters by transferring them to another leveler creature.

@mighty_gorgonzola: From bioshift's ruling:
"To move a counter from one creature to another, the counter is removed from the first creature and placed on the second. Any abilities that care about a counter being removed or placed on a creature will apply", so yes, Corpsejack Menace would work. Also, this can put Age counters onto Old Man of the Sea. 5/5 for that alone.

Played this on a 128/128 Primordial Hydra of an opponent's and threw it on my Rancored Reaper of Sheoldred. Satisfying.
