🖋️ Curator's Notes
Target creature gets -4/-0 until end of turn.

Investigate. (Create a Clue token. It's an artifact with "2, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")

""Just a collage of images: cryptoliths, the sea, a tangle of shipwrecks.""

Official Judge Precedents

4 Precedents

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.

You can't cast a spell without choosing legal targets. If all of those targets become illegal, the spell doesn't resolve and you won't investigate.

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.

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.
