Can anyone explain a pressure counter?

Keyeto

Just the name of the counter you put on the card. Kinda to help you keep track. Just like how some counters are +1/+1 counters or storage counters. It would be a bit too vague if they just said 'put a counter on this permanent'

Maximo

I believe they're only used on the Planechase plane card {Mt. Keralia}, right? Your creatures will all take damage equal to the number of pressure counters on the plane card when you Planeswalk away from it. And it gets a counter at the beginning of every end step I think. Or upkeep.

{Hellion Crucible} and {Magma Mine} have them as well.

Yep. And they'll interact too.

If you can move those counters around...

Shut up jester. Just shut up. Save it for the combo corner. Not the rules section 

You shouldn't postulate here in the rulings. It leads to more issues

What's wrong with that?  If I can give ideas that lead to more questions, then answering those questions will help those players. That's my quest, to increase MtG knowledge. 📝

You should totally make weekly videos of you explaining complex yet awesome interactions between cards. I would watch them lol

I don't have a good side. Besides, my impossibly high standards for myself would mean I'd have to spend hours on an opening theme, title screen, script, hair, makeup 💆💇💅, and there's just not enough room for a trailer. 🚌

Jester: then podcast. Screw the video just talk for an hour or two about stuff. I mean I already spend at least 8 hours a week listening to mtg podcasts

Meh, but then I have to put clothes on... Or at the very least a shirt...

how so? Podcasts are purely voice only. At least the ones I listen to.

I was also wondering why clothes were necessary for this. Or in general... Okay, maybe just for this
