ART: IDEA: lord midnight NOTES: its a pillar or pendulum type of card, pure anti quanta, the stack and get destroyed by earthquake as such. the other variant works on either random or the marks of the players as the developer or community may decide. SERIES:

Discord could be a really evil combo with this and a nova.

thank you, kinda what i was going for. if you had a few of each kind of these you could really slow down the opponent. I think really they are good when you know what you are going up against, but also offer some help here and there with decks that need to have the most of something. Earth decks do well when they get to 75 first, taking a Time Pit is insurance vs hourglasses.

Oh, there's one for each element? My bad. From what I interpreted this was a single card that drained one of each quantum each turn. If it only destroys specific quantum it shouldn't be as problematic, possibly balanced.

If it drains a specific quantum each turn, wouldn't you need to know what quantum types your opponent will be playing beforehand? So for instance if your opponent is using an Earth based deck, you would need to know that beforehand and put Earth Pits in your deck. The only solution I can think of is a card that converts any quantum type into a specific type, then using pits of that type. Perhaps it could be called quantum funnel, for the symbolicness (I sure did just make that up!) of a funnel leading into a pit.

I like the idea of determining the type drained based on your opponent's mark, though. To make it balanced I think it should drain a quantum of your mark type as well, instead of whatever it drained from them. So if they had a mark of Earth and you had a mark of Time, it would drain 1 Earth from them, and 1 Time from you each turn, instead of 1 Earth for both.
EDIT: Oh, as it turns out, I just saw the Void Pillar (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,21409.0.html) card, which basically does what I just described. Never mind the previous paragraph then.
