Oracle Text

Whenever you cast a historic spell, investigate. This ability triggers only once each turn. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic. To investigate, create a Clue token. It's an artifact with "{2}, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")
Doctor's companion (You can have two commanders if the other is the Doctor.)

Character Background

Sarah Jane Smith reads exactly like what her type line promises: a curious, low-cost engine that turns your historic plays into steady card advantage, which makes her ideal for a value-oriented or tempo-value build rather than all-in aggro or fragile combo decks. At 1W for a 2/1 with “whenever you cast a historic spell, investigate” (once each turn), she rewards a deck built around cheap artifacts, Sagas, and legendaries—think Sol Ring and Arcane Signet for consistent historic triggers and a handful of one-mana legends or Sagas to guarantee a clue each turn. Practical synergies include artifact tutors and sacrifice outlets so Clues become immediate gas (turn them into cards on your schedule), and pairing her as a companion commander with the Doctor opens multicolor legendary tools while keeping her steady value engine. Because the ability is once-per-turn, prioritize recurring historic sources and passive artifact ramp over burst historic chains; she shines as the backbone of a midrange/value deck that grinds opponents down with incremental advantage.
