"Find me cards equivalent to: Ethereal Investigator"

Equivalent cards to Ethereal Investigator (blue Spirits with draw/Clue/token synergy):
1. Whirler Rogue — Blue creature, makes artifact tokens (Thopters) when entering.
2. Murkmire Forager — Blue Spirit, investigates when it attacks.
3. Ongoing Investigation — Blue enchantment, not a creature, but closely related (makes Clues, creates Spirits).
4. Skull Skaab — Blue Zombie, creates Decayed Zombies when you sacrifice Clues (not Spirit, but mechanically close).

All involve blue, token creation, or investigating or synergy with drawing. None exactly match all effects of Ethereal Investigator, which is unique for Spirits and blue.

    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.
  • In a Two-Headed Giant game, if you control more than one creature that can attack, you may have them attack different opponents so that Ongoing Investigation's first ability triggers twice.
  • 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.
