Wrench Up the Investigation Wrench is a compact tool with surprising utility. As an uncommon artifact from Murders at Karlov Manor this near mint foil equips for {2} and grants the equipped creature a modest boost and vigilance while giving you a repeated removal option in the form of a tap ability that costs {3}. The card slots into clue and equipment decks cleanly. An efficient play for tempo and value it lets a creature both attack and deter blockers while offering a targeted tap to slow an opposing threat.
There is a small lore note tucked into the design. The wrench reads like a utilitarian clue left behind in a study or workshop. Sacrificing it for a card makes the tool part of the investigation in a literal sense. In gameplay this translates to a flexible piece that supports aggressive lines and grindy mid game exchanges. Use it when you want incremental advantage that can turn a combat or clear a key blocker.
