X|X X=cards in tatratus when it was destroyed. can not be summoned from hand.

Tartarus may ignore death effects (schrodingers kitty may be useless) but that might be too much
If their are ever cards that deal with destroyed cards (bring random destroyed card back to hand) tartarus will definatly ignore those as it is a seperate area of eternal pain.

Tartarus, IMHO, would be Darkness, and here are my reasons why:

1. It's in the deepest part of the underworld (maybe not deepest, but pretty deep).

2. It's in a pitch-black realm.

3. It takes strength from fallen creatures.

4. It's archetypically evil.

5. Darkness is awesome, and this would bolster concept.

6. Aside from pulling creatures towards it, I don't see Tartarus as Gravity.

Tartarus should rely on Death effects, the same as bonewall, so our favorite kitty cat should be all the more useful.


I get how Cronus is eternal, that making Time the ideal place to put it. I say, Cronus is obviously not a standalone card, and the cost is only for being rewound, eh?

Nice job using Percy Jackson to get your ideas, joe. ;)

This idea is actually very useful.

EDIT: I'm torn about whether or not Tartarus should be Death, seeing as how it relies on destroyed cards. BTW, do spells that have been played count as destroyed?
Perception is the source of misunderstanding.

Why, yes. I do have a Mindgate necklace. It's how I ninja everyone.
