Hm, perhaps it is. The wording is a bit ambiguous and could be interpreted to mean that you choose a target creature for each -1/-1 counter on Grief Tyrant rather than putting X -1/-1 counters on target creature, where X is the number of -1/-1 counters on Grief Tyrant.
The reminder text for modular is "This enters the battlefield with three +1/+1 counters on it. When it dies, you may put its +1/+1 counters on target artifact creature." A keyworded version of Grief Tyrant could use similar reminder text so that particular point of confusion would not be an issue.
