Ashiok's Erasure 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.
Official card text
Flash When this enchantment enters, exile target spell. Your opponents can't cast spells with the same name as the exiled card. When this enchantment leaves the battlefield, return the exiled card to its owner's hand.
How it works : Ashiok's Erasure
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
The exiled spell isn't countered, but it won't resolve. This works against spells that can't be countered.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If Ashiok's Erasure leaves the battlefield before its enters-the-battlefield ability has resolved, its last ability triggers and resolves with no effect, then its enters-the-battlefield ability exiles the target spell for the rest of the game.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If there is no exiled card (perhaps because the exiled spell was a copy of a spell), or if the exiled card leaves exile somehow, Ashiok's Erasure won't stop players from casting spells.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
If Ashiok's Erasure has exiled a split card, your opponents can't cast a spell with the same name as either half of that card.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #5· Wizards of the Coast
If Ashiok's Erasure has exiled an adventurer card, your opponents can't cast spells with the same name as the creature, but may cast their Adventures.
No other card is named in this ruling.
