If Kai'Sa - Evolutionary is used to cast Time Warp from the trash (with 11+ points in 2v2), will Time Warp be recycled despite Time Warp banishing itself?

Answer
Ruling: Time Warp banishes itself when it resolves, and then Kai'Sa's recycle effect cannot find it anymore to recycle it, so it remains banished.
Sequence:
- Kai'Sa - Evolutionary's effect allows you to play Time Warp from trash
- Time Warp resolves, taking its effect (extra turn) and banishing itself
- Kai'Sa's "then recycle it" effect tries to find Time Warp but cannot because it has moved to banishment
- Time Warp stays banished
Nuances:
- The recycling happens after the spell resolves, not during resolution (it essentially adds "recycle me" to the end of the spell's effect text)
- Effects generally cannot track cards moving in or out of non-board zones unless they're the ones moving them
- There is some uncertainty in the community about exactly how this interaction works RAW, and the card may need errata similar to Disintegrate
