Officious Interrogation — Quietly Devastating
Officious Interrogation fits the Murders at Karlov Manor playbook. Cast for {W}{U}, this instant scales with the number of targets you pick so timing matters. Choose several opponents on the same turn and the card converts their board presence into Investigate triggers. Each Investigate can net a Clue token that turns into card advantage later, so the card functions as both a tax on opponents and a repeatable source of value.
Experienced players will use Officious Interrogation to punish overextended boards and to fuel engines that care about Clues. It rewards careful target selection and sequencing because the spell's additional cost applies for each target beyond the first. In limited formats this card is a pragmatic pick for tempo and card selection and in constructed lists it slots into control shells that want incremental advantage without committing a permanent to the battlefield.
