Legendary Creature — Human Detective
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.)
“Draw cards with historic spells; outlast opponents through grinding advantage.”
Sarah Jane Smith is a smooth card advantage engine that turns your historic spells into a stream of Clue tokens. Since artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas all count as historic, you'll be investigating once per turn whenever you cast almost any meaningful spell—ramping your card draw while keeping your mana curve low. The deck leans into white's strengths: playing efficient artifacts and legendary creatures, maybe some Sagas, and letting Sarah Jane turn those plays into raw resources. You're not racing anyone down; you're building a slow, grinding advantage that lets you out-resource opponents and find answers to whatever they throw at you.
Your win condition is straightforward: stay alive, draw cards, and cast better threats than your opponents can handle. This is a control-midrange shell where every spell does double duty—it advances your gameplan and draws you cards. White has excellent board wipes, protection spells, and smaller creatures that scale well late game. You'll win through a combination of card advantage attrition and eventually playing the most efficient threats on the board.

Skip expensive legends and playable artifacts like Stoneforge Mystic—use cheaper classics like Inspiring Veteran, Solemn Simulacrum, or mana rocks instead. Clues are your real engine, not flashy stuff.
