Case Closed: Shattered Pact
Case of the Shattered Pact is a pragmatic inclusion for players who want reliable mana and a conditional late game payoff. When Case of the Shattered Pact enters the battlefield you can fetch a basic land and put it into your hand, which smooths your curve and fixes colors without costing tempo. The card reads cleanly and slots into investigation themes while remaining useful in any deck that cares about hitting five colors or enabling a solve trigger.
Solving the case rewards board oriented strategies. If you control permanents of all five colors the Case solves and then grants a creature an offensive and evasive boost at the start of combat on your turn, giving flying, double strike, and vigilance until end of turn. That timing favors setup on your turn and pairs well with creatures that already demand attention. Practical, compact, and flavorful, Case of the Shattered Pact fits both Commander loadouts and casual tabletop lists from Murders at Karlov Manor.
