Gameplay

Instant

Target creature gets +2/+2 until end of turn. Investigate. (Create a Clue token. It's an artifact with "{2}, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")

Proft brushed past the guards and introduced himself as "the great Detective Proft" without a hint of irony, then identified the culprit within minutes.

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.

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.

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.
