Artifact Creature — Clue Plant
Ward 
At the beginning of each combat, other Clues you control become 6/6 Plant creatures in addition to their other types until end of turn.
, Sacrifice this creature: Draw a card.
, Sacrifice this creature: Draw a card.“Even experienced detectives can be strung along by planted evidence.”

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.
- WotCFeb 2, 2024
Clues you control will keep any abilities they previously had while they’re creatures.
- WotCFeb 2, 2024
If a Clue you control is already a creature when Tangletrove Kelp’s second ability resolves, Tangletrove Kelp’s second ability will overwrite any previous effects that set that creature’s power and toughness to specific numbers. Effects that otherwise modify its power and toughness will still apply no matter when they took effect. The same is true for +1/+1 counters.
- WotCFeb 2, 2024
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.
- WotCFeb 2, 2024
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.
- WotCFeb 2, 2024
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.
- WotCFeb 2, 2024
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.
