Ashes of the Fallen is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
01
Official card text
As this artifact enters, choose a creature type. Each creature card in your graveyard has the chosen creature type in addition to its other types.
How it works : Ashes of the Fallen
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If Spirit is the chosen creature type, the soulshift ability will be able to target any creature card in your graveyard of the appropriate mana value. Suppose two creatures, including one with soulshift, are put into your graveyard from the battlefield at the same time. The Spirit creature type is added as the cards enter the graveyard, just before you choose the target for the soulshift ability.
No other card is named in this ruling.
