Kresh the Bloodbraided is on the battlefield with another creature, let's say a 1/1.
Kresh has the following ability:
Whenever another creature dies, you may put X +1/+1 counters on Kresh the Bloodbraided, where X is that creature's power.
The opponent deals 5 damage to both of them, which should kill them both. Will Kresh's ability trigger to make him a 6/6 and save him from being killed by the 5 damage?

For clarity, I would edit the question to mention the card that is dealing the 5 damage. Also, Kresh is a 3/3, so putting a +1/+1 counter on Kresh would not make him a 6/6. Can we assume that Kresh already has a couple of counters on him?

If Kresh is a 5/5 when the damage is dealt, he will die when the damage resolves because he will have 5 damage marked on him the next time state-based actions are checked, causing him to go to the graveyard. The check will occur before the triggered ability resolves, so he'll never have the chance to add the +1/+1 counter.
New contributor
Apologies for the 5/5 mistake, not sure how that number stuck in my head instead of 3/3. So does that mean that his ability won't trigger for the death of the other creature? Is this the case for all simultanous death triggers? For example Omnath + elemental creature dying at the same time causing Omnath to not fire for 3?
