"Find me cards equivalent to: Dogged Detective"
Cards equivalent to Dogged Detective (mono-black card that investigates, replaces itself, and has a graveyard effect) include:
- Persistent Specimen (cheap black recur, though doesn’t investigate)
- Filigree Familiar (colorless, replaces itself, graveyard bonus)
- Murderous Rider (replaces itself from the graveyard, black, lifelink body on death)
Direct investigate + mono-black is rare, so there’s no perfect equivalent. Closest in function is Persistent Specimen for recursion, and Filigree Familiar for body + draw combo.
