7 Cards Found

AI 🤖 Find me cards equivalent to: Dogged Detective

Cards equivalent to Dogged Detective (Mono-Black, investigates upon entering/dying):

  • Corpse Churn (returns creatures, investigates if a condition met – weaker synergy)
  • Gurmag Drowner (Blue, but closest mono-color analog for investigate on ETB—none in Black does exact same)
  • Elderfang Disciple, Virus Beetle (Mono-Black, enters, causes discard—similar function in disruption/removal)
  • Stitcher's Supplier, Doomed Dissenter (Mono-Black, benefits on death, but not investigate directly)


Reason: Mono-black has few direct clues/investigate, but supports value on ETB and death like Dogged Detective. No mono-black card does exactly the same; closest are ETB/dies value creatures.

    Surveil

    Rules

  • Dogged Detective doesn't need to be in the graveyard when the first card is drawn for its last ability to trigger. As long as it is in the graveyard when an opponent draws their second card in a turn, it will trigger.
  • When you surveil, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards into your graveyard, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them into your graveyard.

  • As the triggered ability resolves, first the next opponent in turn order (or, if it's an opponent's turn, the opponent whose turn it is) chooses a card in hand and sets it aside without revealing it. Then each other opponent in turn order does the same. Finally, all chosen cards are revealed and discarded at the same time.

    Exploit

    Rules

  • A creature with exploit “exploits a creature” when the controller of the exploit ability sacrifices a creature as that ability resolves.
  • If the creature with exploit isn’t on the battlefield as the exploit ability resolves, you won’t get any bonus from the creature with exploit, even if you sacrifice a creature. Because the creature with exploit isn’t on the battlefield, its other triggered ability won’t trigger.
  • You can sacrifice the creature with exploit if it’s still on the battlefield. This will cause its other ability to trigger.
  • You can’t sacrifice more than one creature to any one exploit ability.
  • You choose whether to sacrifice a creature and which creature to sacrifice as the exploit ability resolves.
