Gameplay

Creature — Vedalken Detective

When this creature enters, return up to one other target creature to its owner's hand. If you controlled it, investigate. (Create a Clue token. It's an artifact with "{2}, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")

They always think they're better than the local investigators. They're usually right.

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.

2024-02-02wotc

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.

2024-02-02wotc

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.
