I am disappoint.
no one has mentioned consecrated sphinx yet?
I mean, you'll get a counter on each of your opponent's turns, making this combo insane in EDH.
then, all you have to worry about is getting counters on it on your turn.
In a large EDH game, you could get this running within 1-2 turns of playing it, if you already have the sphinx out.

Combos with Fluctuator. Get where I'm headed with that?
For anyone who doesn't get it, I'm saying use this card with cards that cycle.

Well, there are kind of interesting combos and once the ascention is done, this is crazy good.
But six counters, geez! Yeah, you can also count your opponents' turns when done right and can profilerate multiple times in a single turn, but that still takes such a huge amount of time.
If four counters would have been needed only this would have been pretty interesting.

I can't believe this card is rated so low. It owns in EDH. I had this out with Font of Mythos and Howling Mine. This thing had its counters loaded up in no time. Each turn I was searching up 4 cards from my library. Absolutely insane.

Counter cost is too high to be depended upon, so really all this is good for is complementing an already-good draw strategy. On the other hand, if it kicks in for even one turn, you can practically lock the game. 4/5 in my book.

Think Twice runs excellently with this if you can afford to spend the mana on your turn.
Steady Progress, as has been mentioned many times, is practically made for it.
Any {T}:Draw effects like Thought Courier are automatic counters. I personally run Enclave Cryptologist because it combos with proliferate, too.
Finally, Brainstorming on your opponent's turn gives you a bonus counter!
