Wojek Investigator

Description

Designed by artist Ben Hill, this creature card brings the thematic depth of the Ixalan block's detective mechanics into a standalone promotional format. Collectors often seek this card for its unique artistic treatment and its role in representing the investigative narrative of the era. As a Rare card, the Wojek Investigator is classified as a Creature — Angel Detective with a mana cost of two generic mana and one white mana. Its gameplay profile offers both defensive utility and resource generation. The card possesses the keywords flying and vigilance, allowing it to evade ground-based blockers while preventing first strike damage. This dual keyword combination makes it a resilient presence on the battlefield. The card's primary ability triggers at the beginning of the controller's upkeep, creating Clue tokens based on the opponent's hand size. For each opponent holding more cards than the player, a Clue token is generated. These Clue tokens are artifact cards that can be sacrificed for two mana to draw a card. This mechanic rewards strategic hand management and provides a scalable advantage in longer games. The flavor text, "Well, this clearly didn't come from anyone I know...", adds a layer of mystery that aligns with the set's noir-inspired detective theme. For Magic: The Gathering enthusiasts, this promo card serves as a valuable piece for those completing set collections or building themed decks. The Wojek Investigator stands out due to its specific card number and its representation of the Angel Detective subtype. Its ability to generate card advantage through the investigate mechanic makes it a functional and collectible piece of modern Magic history. Whether for casual play or collection purposes, this card offers a blend of mechanical depth and thematic appeal.
