Undercover Crocodelf: Quiet Investigator
Undercover Crocodelf is a practical inclusion for any blue green deck that values steady card advantage and evasive threats. As a five five for {4}{G}{U} it carries weight on the board and a conditional engine that triggers whenever it deals combat damage to a player. That trigger investigates and generates Clue artifacts you can sacrifice for cards which fits the set theme of clues and mystery without slowing your tempo.
The card also offers a disguise option for tempo plays. You can cast it face down as a two two with ward two and later turn it face up for {3}{G}{U} to reveal a full sized five five. In play this lets you present a low profile threat and then flip into the main threat when the timing is right. This listing is a Near Mint foil from Murders at Karlov Manor and is suitable for competitive play or display.
