Does leaving the battlefield count as dying in MTG?
Nope, leaving the battlefield in MTG doesn't count as 'dying.' A creature only 'dies' if it goes from the battlefield directly to the graveyard. If it’s getting exiled, bounced back to someone’s hand, or shuffled into a library, it’s not considered dying. So, 'dying' has a very specific meaning in the game that involves the graveyard.

No. Dying = graveyard. Anything else is just a field trip.
Actually, dying means something pretty specific in Magic: The Gathering. It’s when a creature hits the graveyard from the battlefield. So, if your creature is getting teleported out of existence into the exile zone or bouncing back to your hand, it's not dying. Important distinction for certain cards and abilities!
