Demand Answers — Quick Case Notes Demand Answers is a compact red instant that trades a small cost for card advantage. Castable at {1}{R}, it asks you to either sacrifice an artifact or discard a card as an additional cost. In play this reads as a tactical trade; use it when you can spare a token artifact or a redundant hand piece to refill your options and maintain pressure.
From a lore angle this spell fits Karlov Manor’s investigative tone. It is the sort of abrupt inquiry that forces a witness to choose what to hide. In deckbuilding the card slots into aggressive and midrange red strategies and into artifact focused shells where sacrificing is cheap. The Showcase foil treatment makes it a nice pickup for collectors who want functional playability and an evocative piece of set flavor.
