    Investigate — Create a Clue token. It's an artifact with ", Sacrifice this artifact: Draw a card."

  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    If an effect refers to a Clue, it means any Clue artifact, not just a Clue artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Wrench to pay for Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's activated ability.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    There's no limit to the number of creatures that can be suspected simultaneously. Suspecting a new creature doesn't cause other creatures to stop being suspected.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    When an effect suspects a creature, it becomes suspected. It gains menace and "This creature can't block" for as long as it's suspected. It stays suspected until it leaves the battlefield or another effect causes it to no longer be suspected.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    Clue is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some cards with other permanent types, it's never a creature type, a land type, or anything but an artifact type.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    Some abilities trigger "whenever you sacrifice a Clue". Those abilities trigger whenever you sacrifice a Clue for any reason, not just to activate a Clue's activated ability.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    If a creature is already suspected, suspecting it again won't have any effect.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    Being suspected isn't a copiable value. If a permanent becomes a copy of a suspected creature, it won't be suspected.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    If a suspected creature loses all abilities, it will lose menace and "This creature can't block", but it won't stop being suspected.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    Eliminate the Impossible affects only creatures your opponents control at the time it resolves. Creatures they begin to control later in the turn won't get -2/-0 and won't stop being suspected.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    You can't sacrifice a Clue to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Clue token to activate its own ability and also to activate Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's ability.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-02-02
    Official Ruling
    Some spells and abilities that investigate may require targets. If each target chosen is an illegal target as that spell or ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve. You won't create any Clue tokens.
