Whispered Evidence
Unscrupulous Agent is a practical inclusion when you need early disruption that answers a hand, not a board state. The one black and one generic cost gets you a 1 1 body that triggers as it hits the battlefield. The triggered ability forces a target opponent to exile a card from their hand which changes the flow of information and narrows their options in a way that matters in tight games. Use it to strip a combo piece or to take a removal spell away before you commit key creatures.
Mechanically simple and thematically aligned with Murders at Karlov Manor, this Elf Detective fits into graveyard or hand hate shells and packs well into limited decks where removing answers can win tempo. The foil finish and light play condition make this copy collectible for play or display while keeping it ready for use in the next draft or pub night. A little lore nod notes that proper channels in Karlov always include a second set of hands and a sealed envelope.
