Draw a card. Investigate. (Create a Clue token. It's an artifact with "
, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")
La cara de Proft se iluminó como la de quien acaba de recibir un regalo grandioso e inesperado.
—Ya sé quién está tras todo esto —dijo—. Y puedo demostrarlo.Roba una carta. Investiga. (Crea una ficha de Pista. Es un artefacto con ", sacrificar este artefacto: Roba una carta".)
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.
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.
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.
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.
