Undying
Undying is a triggered ability. “Undying” means “When this permanent is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, if it had no +1/+1 counters on it, return it to the battlefield under its owner’s control with a +1/+1 counter on it.”
If a state-based action results in a permanent leaving the battlefield at the same time other state-based actions were performed, that permanent’s last known information is derived from the game state before any of those state-based actions were performed.
Rulings
Cards that aren't creature cards won't be returned to the battlefield, even if an effect made those cards creatures when they were last on the battlefield.
Creature spells that were countered never entered the battlefield, so Thrilling Encore won't return them to the battlefield.
In a multiplayer game, if a player leaves the game, all cards that player owns leave as well. If you leave the game, all creatures put onto the battlefield with Thrilling Encore that you controlled but didn't own are exiled.
