Oracle Text
Menace (This creature can't be blocked except by two or more creatures.)
When this creature dies, it deals 1 damage to you. Create a Clue token. (It's an artifact with "{2}, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Callous Inspector is a neatly tuned black common that rewards an aggressive or sacrifice-oriented game plan, with enough built-in value to stay relevant in slower decks too. A 1/1 menace for {B} already pressures early turns by forcing awkward blocks, and in a tempo shell it can chip in damage while demanding a real answer. The death trigger is the real payoff: trading off leaves behind a Clue, turning your cheap body into card selection later, though at the cost of 1 damage to you. That makes it especially appealing in decks that want creatures to die anyway, such as Aristocrats-style lists with sacrifice outlets, recursion, or cards that care about artifacts entering the battlefield. It also pairs well with effects that can exploit Clues as fodder or convert them into additional value. In draft or Limited, it’s a premium role-player: early pressure, inevitable value, and a threat that’s annoying for control decks to ignore.
