accidental additional word removed

I think you may be missing an essential comma after "If you do". Also after "combat damage".

Also should that be "you may pay"?

The counter stealing is clunky that way, because the removal of counters is capped, the cost isn't.

It's once again also a mechanic that gets worse as it becomes more effective, because the cost goes up proportionally, so you are discouraged from really leaning into the theme.

I'd really love to see a "feed on your counters" card, but it doesn't mesh well with the scaling threshold of the permeate theme IMO.

Mmm. I guess it's intentional that this is fighting itself. There's tension between getting more black things out there (so you can nom more counters) and having too many out there (so you can't afford to use it any more). And of course, in the absence of any kind of lace, you've got a minimum of two.

I dunno. This is at least cheap; so you can just splash one in, and try and steal your opponents counters? It doesn't really feel like you could use this as a build hint, though.

Ngl, I don't remember why I made this cycle this way. I know wanted a Permeate five-color cycle that was themed around each god, using the color in the center of the wedge for the god. Why I went with the X being based on the number of creatures of that color, I do not know.
