Creature death that should have survived
In this event, my opponent used a nibelheim aflame to clear the battlefield using a 3/3 Qarsi Revenant. I had several creatures on the field. When I realized my only option was to sacrifice some creatures to boost my Syr Vondham, I did, taking it up to a 6/6, which should have survived the spell which did 3 damage. He got his counters but the spell still killed all of my creatures, including Syr. Why wouldn't that be a viable option to survive damage spells?

Nibelheim Aflame says the creature deals the damage. Qarsi Revenant has deathtouch. So all that damage came from a source with deathtouch. No amount of toughness can make a creature survive that.
