Tuck

'Tuck' removal sends the target to its owner's LIBRARY — bottom, top, or shuffled in. Because it never touches the graveyard, tuck dodges death triggers, regeneration, leaves-the-battlefield value, and graveyard recursion, which keeps it a distinct, prized answer (historically the classic way to deal with a recurring commander before the rules changed). Covers put-on-bottom/top effects (Condemn, Time Ebb), counter-and-tuck (Hinder, Spell Crumple), and shuffle-into-library effects (Chaos Warp, Spin into Myth). Distinct from removal.bounce, which returns the card to hand for an easy recast, and removal.exile_removal, which sends it to exile. Self-library effects ('on top of your library' — Brainstorm, topdeck tutors) are deliberately excluded.
