About Deduce
Deduce, Instant, designed by Ina Wong first released in December 2023 in the set Murders at Karlov Manor and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Modern and Pioneer. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.02.
This card, Deduce, would benefit decks that focus on card draw and resource generation, particularly in blue-based control or tempo decks in Magic: the Gathering. While Deduce provides card advantage and can help with deck manipulation, there are potentially better options like Opt or Serum Visions that offer more immediate benefits or selection. However, Deduce could still see play in certain strategies that value the Clue tokens for additional card draw and flexibility.
Rules
02/02/2024
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.
02/02/2024
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.
02/02/2024
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.
02/02/2024
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.
02/02/2024
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.
