Urgent Necropsy — Forensic Finish
Urgent Necropsy is a compact removal spell that reads like a crime scene report. Cast it for {2}{B}{G} and pay the additional cost based on the mana value of the permanents you intend to target using the collect evidence clause. The result is efficient board control; you can destroy up to one artifact, one creature, one enchantment, and one planeswalker in a single instant. It answers diverse threats without overcommitting cards and plays cleanly around protection and indestructible since it is targeted destruction rather than exile.
The card fits into Golgari narratives without adding clutter to your curve. In grindy midrange shells it clears problem permanents and preserves your tempo when you sequence removal on your opponent s turn. Against combo decks it provides a compact solution to multiple pieces of a combo at once. The printed flavor and collect evidence mechanic help the card feel native to Murders at Karlov Manor while offering practical interaction for tournament or casual play.
