Question from the discord

- A plays Sudario Refraction, and targets the other Sudario in their Ash Heap (they have only one there) for the effect (and two other cards)
- B does not block, but they use Erciyes Fragments to remove the one Sudario Refraction from the ash heap of A
- Upon resolution, does the played Sudario card go to ash heap _before_ resolution and can be used as a target, or not?

I belive all these questions were answered already codex-of-the-damned.org/en/card-search.html?card=Sudario+Refraction

1. The chosen cards are named when the action is declared. The current Sudario cannot be part of them. [LSJ 20050422](groups.google.com/d/msg/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/nJPfMOuTBtw/COytKb_oEM4J)[LSJ 20090722](groups.google.com/d/msg/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/r-N65rA52uo/OXW8xk1r1iMJ) 
2. Any copy of the named card can be fetched upon resolution. [LSJ 20090722](groups.google.com/d/msg/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/r-N65rA52uo/OXW8xk1r1iMJ) 
3. If no copy of a named card is in the ash heap upon resolution (eg. The Erciyes Fragments was used to take it), the effect still resolves for the other copies and the acting Methuselah discards 3 cards.

I don't think these rulings answer this specific scenario:
1. Means you cannot choose Sudario if you do not have one in the ash heap, but in the scenario here, you do have one. If you go check the linked rulings there, they say nothing about having a Sudario in the ash heap but selecting another (the one you played) upon resolution.
2. Means you can fetch whichever Sudario when it resolves, so if the Sudario used for the action hits the ash heap upon resolution but before (or can be ordered before) the effect resolution itself, you should be able to fetch it
3. Means that if the Sudario you played hits the ash heap upon resolution but only after you resolved the effect, it has to fizzle, you cannot select the Sudario you played at resolution

Hence the question and the need for a ruling here. It is very much linked to inm8's question on the exact timing for a card to be put in the ash heap. It will give us a more precise answer than "it is put in the ash heap upon resolution".

The Sudario Refraction you play cannot be chosen for its own effect, because it doesn't go to the ash heap until the resolution is over.

So, if
1/ you had a single Sudario Refraction (A) in your ash heap
2/ and you named "Sudario Refraction" as part of the declaration of the Sudario Refraction
(B) action
3/ and the Sudario Refraction (A) in your ash heap is removed before resolution

then the action (B) fizzles as you can't bring back (B) as part of its own effect.
only brings back the two other cards, as (B) can't be brung back as part of its own effect.

I found an answer to this question in LSJ 20090722 where it was ruled differently

Names.

The Outliend scenario here is very similar, difference being, it looks at the action card itself, isntead of a mofifier played during the action.

With your post I have the folling questions;

Is your ruling a reversal of the ruliing on Q1 about partial recovery? (LSJ said partial recovers is possible, you say action fizzles)

Is your ruling a reversal on the rulign, taht cards are chosen by name, and not by copy?
(if there are two defelctions in the ahs heap, I have to chose a specific one)
or does your ruling mean, that Sudario has not hit the ash heap at the point of resolution?

My mistake, it would only fizzle if you were unable to retrieve any of the three cards. You resolve Sudario Refraction and take as many cards as possible (two in our scenario).
