Rulings
- April 8, 2016 — You can cast Expose Evil with no targets if you only want to investigate.
- April 8, 2016 — If Expose Evil has at least one target and all of those targets become illegal, the spell doesn't resolve and you won't investigate.
- April 8, 2016 — Clue is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some cards with other permanent types, it's never a creature type, a land type, or anything but an artifact type.
- April 8, 2016 — If an effect refers to a Clue, it means any Clue artifact, not just a Clue artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Wrench to pay for Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's activated ability.
- April 8, 2016 — You can't sacrifice a Clue to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Clue token to activate its own ability and also to activate Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's ability.
