Deadly Complication
Deadly Complication is a compact sorcery from Murders at Karlov Manor that forces a choice at instant speed of conviction. Cast it for {1}{B}{R} and you can remove a threat outright or seed a suspect to grow into trouble for your opponent. The design rewards players who want a flexible removal slot that also trades board presence for future pressure.
In play this card serves as a two way tool. Use the destroy mode to answer a looming blocker or a key attacker. Use the counter mode to bolster a suspected creature and shift the table dynamic while keeping the option to clear the suspect later on. The card reads like a procedural twist in the investigation where evidence can be suppressed or amplified depending on who holds the ledger.
