Interaction between Surge to Victory and Reckless Rage
Asked by CamraMaan 1 year ago
I have Reckless Rage in my graveyard and cast Surge to Victory targeting it. I deal damage to opponents with five creatures during combat, putting five copies of Reckless Rage on the stack. With each one I target various opponents' creatures, but only target a single 1/1 token I control with my half of each spell. The first copy to resolve will kill this 1/1 token, so what happens with the remaining copies on the stack? Do they still resolve without my creature in play to target? Does the whole spell fizzle, or only half of it? Thanks in advance! :)
To further explain, a spell only fizzles if all of its targets become illegal.
If a player cast Cryptic Command choosing to bounce a permanent and draw a card, and the bounce target becomes illegal, they won't draw either, as all the targets have become illegal.
Reckless Rage wants 2 targets upon cast, but if it only has one upon resolution, it'll still resolve.

Sorry, I should have looked at the Gatherer rulings for Reckless Rage, it answers my question there. My apologies. For anyone reading this curious about the answer, yes, they all still resolve.
