If all targets for the chosen modes become illegal before Rootcast Apprenticeship resolves, the spell will be countered and none of its effects will happen. If at least one target is still legal, the spell will resolve but will have no effect on any illegal targets.

If Rootcast Apprenticeship is copied, the effect that creates the copy will usually allow you to choose new targets, but you can't choose new modes.
wotc26 Jul 2024
If the same mode is chosen more than once, you choose their relative order as you cast the spell. For example, if you choose the last mode of Rootcast Apprenticeship more than once, you choose the relative order in which the target opponents sacrifice nontoken artifacts.
wotc26 Jul 2024
No matter which combination of modes you choose, you always follow the instructions in the order they are written.
wotc26 Jul 2024
No player can cast spells or activate abilities in between the modes of a resolving spell. Any abilities that trigger won't be put onto the stack until a spell is done resolving.
wotc26 Jul 2024
You can select a mode only if there's a legal target available for that mode. Ignore the targeting requirements for modes you don't choose. Each time you select that mode, you can choose a different target, or you can choose the same target.
