Slogurk going to graveyard after activating bounce instead of going to hand
Two times today playing Timeless on PC, I activated Slogurk's bounce ability with exactly 3 counters while being targeted with a burn spell/ability. After activating, the menu to return my three lands to hand comes up. After I select the lands, the lands are in my hand but Slogurk is in the graveyard. The first time, it was targeted by an obliterating bolt. The second time, I was being targeted by the second of two Phlage triggers. In both cases, the opponent's spells/abilities fizzled and they did not cast any spell or activated any ability in response to my activations.

Did Slogurk already take 3+ damage that turn? If so, removing the 3 +1/+1 counters can make the marked damage from that lethal to the now much smaller creature.
