Surveillance Monitor is a practical addition to control oriented blue decks in Murders at Karlov Manor. As a 3/3 Vedalken Detective for {3}{U}, it arrives and immediately lets you collect evidence 4 from your graveyard, turning raw card value into board resources. The printed triggers are straightforward to sequence and reward graveyard interaction while generating a steady supply of 1/1 colorless Thopter artifact creature tokens with flying whenever you collect evidence.
Play reads cleanly at midgame and adapts well to both tempo and value lines. Use the Monitor to refill air defenses or to trade favors with artifact synergies and sacrifice outlets. In the manor narrative this Vedalken keeps watch over clues and fragments of old cases which makes the creature functionally thematic without getting in the way of engine building.
