Character Background
Sarah Jane Smith anchors your strategy as a relentless “pair of eyes” for the long, story-rich clues of time travel. As a Legendary Creature—Human Detective, she rewards you whenever you cast a historic spell, immediately creating Clue tokens to fuel card flow; because the ability triggers only once each turn, you want to sequence your plays so that your first historic cast each turn is your most reliable value engine. Her Doctor’s companion rule also lets you run two-commanders, so pair her with the Doctor to maximize access to historic effects and keep the deck streamlined around timey-wimey synergies. In gameplay terms, Sarah Jane supports a value/control game plan: Clues become repeatable draw by sacrificing them, letting you stabilize while digging for removal or win conditions. Deckbuild her with lots of artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas—especially cards that reliably appear early—so you consistently hit historic spells and convert early investigation into midgame inevitability.
