Chalk Outline — Plot the Evidence
Chalk Outline is a practical pick for midrange green decks that want incremental board presence and card advantage on the back half of the game. For three and a green, this enchantment turns creatures leaving your graveyard into immediate board resources by creating 2/2 white and blue Detective creature tokens then triggering an investigate. The tokens serve as chump blockers or value attackers while the Clue provides card selection later, so the card rewards decks that self mill, recur creatures, or sacrifice repeatedly.
The flavor fits Karlov Manor with a controlled, procedural payoff rather than a flashy swing. In play this card smooths out late game draws and punishes opponents who try to exile your graveyard. Experienced pilots will slot it where recurring bodies are reliable and where the Investigate trigger can be cashed in for specific answers to stalled matches.
