"Find me cards equivalent to: Forensic Gadgeteer"

Equivalent cards to Forensic Gadgeteer (Mono-Blue, artifact synergy, cost reduction, or investigation):
1. Sai, Master Thopterist — Also mono-blue, creates Thopters when you cast artifacts and can draw cards with a sac ability.
2. Emry, Lurker of the Loch — Mono-blue, lets you replay artifacts from your graveyard.
3. Etherium Sculptor — Mono-blue, makes artifact spells cost {1} less to cast.
4. Jhoira, Ageless Innovator — Mono-blue, investigates with artifact triggers (synergizes with Clues).
5. Vedalken Engineer — Mono-blue, helps ramp artifacts.


Reason: All are mono-blue, focus on artifact triggers, cost reduction, or card advantage. Direct cost reduction for activation is rare in blue, but cost reducers and artifact engines are the closest equivalents.

    Rules

  • Casting the target card causes it to leave your graveyard and become a new object. You can't cast it again if it returns to your graveyard this turn.
  • If Emry's last ability targets an artifact land card, you can't play it. Effects that allow you to "cast" a card don't allow you to play a land card.
  • Once you announce that you're casting a spell, no player may take actions until the spell has been paid for. Notably, opponents can't try to change by how much Emry's cost is reduced.
  • The cost reduction ability reduces only the generic mana in Emry's cost. The colored mana must still be paid.
  • To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions (such as that of Emry). The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.
  • You must follow the normal timing permissions and restrictions for the target artifact card. Unless it has flash, you'll most likely only be able to cast it during your main phase while the stack is empty.
  • You'll still pay all costs for a spell cast this way, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs if any are available.

  • This effect can reduce only the generic portion of the artifact spell's total cost.
  • This effect doesn't change the mana cost or mana value of an artifact spell. Rather, it reduces the total cost of the spell, which is the amount you actually pay while casting it. The total cost takes into account additional or alternative costs.

    Abilities/Keywords

    Investigate

    Rules

  • Activated abilities contain a colon. They're generally written "[Cost]: [Effect]." Some keywords are activated abilities and will have colons in their reminder text. Triggered abilities (starting with "when," "whenever," or "at") are unaffected by the cost reduction ability of Forensic Gadgeteer.
  • 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.
  • Forensic Gadgeteer's last ability affects only abilities of artifacts you control on the battlefield. The costs of activated abilities of artifact cards that work in other zones, such as cycling, won't be reduced.
  • 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.
  • Some abilities trigger "whenever you sacrifice a Clue". Those abilities trigger whenever you sacrifice a Clue for any reason, not just to activate a Clue's activated ability.
  • Some spells and abilities that investigate may require targets. If each target chosen is an illegal target as that spell or ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve. You won't create any Clue tokens.
  • 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.

    Whenever you cast an artifact spell, investigate. (Create a Clue token. It's an artifact with ",Sacrificethis token: Draw a card.") Activated abilities of artifacts you control cost less to activate. This effect can't reduce the mana in that cost to less than one mana.
