Detective of the Month — Lead the Inquiry
Detective of the Month is a compact blue build around card advantage and evasive pressure. At three mana it gives you a steady engine: Ascend can be a quick reach to the citys blessing, and once you have it your Detectives slip past blockers. The triggered token on your second draw each turn turns routine card draw into board presence while preserving tempo and card economy.
Play this in decks that want consistent bodies and repeatable value. It pairs well with cheap card draw and bounce effects that let you reliably hit the second draw trigger. In lore terms the card reads like a civic promotion a newcomer who turns routine investigations into public recognition while recruiting allies for every lead uncovered.
