Gruff triplets not giving counters
I've had this experience multiple times, not sure what causes it but gruff triplets tokens will often fail to give counters to their living counterparts on death. Usually this happens when they die to combat damage. I've triplets checked my opponent had nothing to exile my creatures when they die or anything, it just didnt work as intended.

Well, there should have been a trigger, but not adding any counters is correct. After all, the dying Triplet had a power of 0, so 0 counters are added.

Was playing a match with 3 Gruff Triplets in play when opponent targeted one of the triplets with Bloodline Culling giving it -5/-5 which killed it, yet it did not trigger the add counters to other triplets.

Depends on if they actually die, and how they die. Something like Etchings of Kumano could make them get exiled instead. While stuff like Drown in Ichor reduces power and toughness, and thus they die with 0 power, thus giving 0 counters.

Playing with gruff triplets and ,recently have noticed when one of the three dies the others are not getting the counters , it should not matter whether it’s the token or the actually creature of gruff whenever any of them dies the others on field should be getting counters . What is going on
