Ayara's Oathsworn
Menace
Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, if it has fewer than four +1/+1 counters on it, put a +1/+1 counter on it. Then if it has exactly four +1/+1 counters on it, search your library for a card, put it into your hand, then shuffle.

If the triggered ability does trigger, that ability will check Ayara's Oathsworn again as it tries to resolve. If Ayara's Oathsworn has four or more +1/+1 counters on it at that time, the ability won't resolve. None of its effects will happen. You won't put a +1/+1 counter on Ayara's Oathsworn and you won't search for a card.
If Ayara's Oathsworn has four or more +1/+1 counters on it as it deals combat damage to a player, its ability won't trigger at all. None of its effects will happen. You won't put a +1/+1 counter on Ayara's Oathsworn and you won't search for a card.
If Ayara's Oathsworn isn't on the battlefield as its ability tries to resolve, you won't search for a card, even if Ayara's Oathsworn had three +1/+1 counters on it before if left the battlefield, because it won't be around to have the fourth +1/+1 counter put on it.
