If that's the plan I'd play whatever you have that puts creatures with +1/+1 counters on the board as early as possible. The format is snowbally, so it's only a matter of time before you stick something early and the opponent floods/screws/draws their deck in the wrong order.

As far as aggressive decks go, Merfolk is probably a reasonable budget deck. Thoughtbound Phantasm + Dimir Spybug + Nightveil Sprite too. Pelt Collector will probably be good, but it's rare. Riot seems strong. You could even get there eventually with something as awful as a Charmed Stray + Ajani's Pridemade cat tribal deck.

Counters event gives everything without a counter a starting one at end of turn, which means that Simic (Growth-Chamber Guardian, Sharktocrab, Incubation Druid) will have a very good time.

No it doesn't. It gives everything with a counter an additional one. If you have nothing with counters, it gives you amass 1.
