If an effect requires information about a specific player, the effect uses the current information about that player if they are still in the game; otherwise, the effect uses the last known information about that player before they left the game. If an effect requires information from the game about actions players have taken, the effect can find actions that were taken by a player who has left the game. If an effect requires information from the game about actions players have taken during their "last turn," it can find the actions that were taken by a player who has left the game only until that player's next turn after leaving the game would have begun.
