Does anyone know if there's a card out there that basically says "Counters on permanents can not be removed"? I'm looking to put together a "Can't Lose" EDH deck and came across Soul Echo, which says "Soul Echo enters the battlefield with X echo counters on it. You don't lose the game for having 0 or less life. At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice Soul Echo if there are no echo counters on it. Otherwise, target opponent may choose that for each 1 damage that would be dealt to you until your next upkeep, you remove an echo counter from Soul Echo instead."
To my knowledge, I know there's at least one card that prevents counters from being added to permanents and players, but nothing that prevents them from being removed. I think now that War of the Spark has dropped all these new Planeswalkers, a card that prevents them from using their negative abilities would be a pretty cool addition.
The effect that you're looking for has never been printed on a card, and it wouldn't be used for a planeswalker hoser, either. For that, they'd just print cards that make them unable to activate any loyalty ability, such as The Immortal Sun.
If you want to abuse Soul Echo, in particular, then try Eon Hub, which prevents the triggered ability that removes the counters from triggering in the first place.
