Counter-Force Manipulation

"The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few."

― Spock (Star Trek)

"It’s a simple calculus. The universe is finite, its resources finite. If life is left unchecked, life will cease to exist... When I'm done, half of humanity will still exist. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be..."

― Thanos (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

"There has to be a counterbalance; for every action, there must be an equal and opposite reaction."

― Isaac Newton

The ability to counter anything/everything. Variation of Force Manipulation. Not to be confused with Omnicounter or Absolute Counter.

Anti-Type
Counter Force Control

Capabilities[]

User can counter anything including events, powers, choices, creations/destruction etc., in a number of ways, from gaining counter abilities (IE. Enemy uses fire, you can use water) to wiping out an entire army, just to protect their interests. They may be tied to the whims of the granter of these powers, may be a god themselves, and unable to pick and choose, or chose to be used by the Counter-Force, or maybe even be the Counter-Force itself.

User is armed for any situation that may arise, and as such, have great skill on their own. This ability also includes not only countering out, or negating a situation that could be bad/good, but also being able to change peoples ways. As simply Countering out something still leaves the situation unresolved.
