As mentioned in the title. Geralf's Messenger is on the battle field with no +1/+1 counters on him.
Someone cast a Lightning Bolt at him, in response I cast Supernatural Stamina.
When he comes back to the battle field does he have +1/+1 counters or not.
Thanks!
You get to choose. Since you control both triggered abilities you get to choose the order in which they hit the stack.
If you put the trigger from supernatural stamina on the stack first Undying will return the messenger with a +1/+1 counter and the ability from supernatural stamina will resolve doing nothing as it has lost track of the messenger.
Conversely if the triggered ability from undying on the stack is put on the stack first supernatural stamina will return the creature and it won't get a +1/+1 counter as the undying ability will have lost track of the creature when it comes to resolve.
