4 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Daring Sleuth

Equivalent cards to Daring Sleuth (blue, investigates, transforms):

  • Thraben Inspector (white, investigates, less similar but close)
  • Ingenious Prodigy (blue, draw card, not investigation but similar theme)
  • Jace's Scrutiny (blue, investigates, not a creature)

Closest direct blue equivalent: There are very few blue creatures that investigate and transform, as Daring Sleuth is unique in blue. You may have to consider colorless or artifact creatures that investigate, like Tamiyo's Journal (artifact), for support.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Investigate

    Rules

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
