Clue tokens are artifact tokens with "{2}, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card."

2025-10-02 · Wizards of the Coast

Messenger Hawk's last ability applies even if you drew two or more cards only before Messenger Hawk entered.

Creating a Clue token this way isn't the same thing as investigating. Notably, an ability that triggers whenever you investigate won't trigger because of creating a Clue token this way.

If a spell or ability causes you to put cards into your hand without specifically using the word "draw," Messenger Hawk's ability doesn't count them.
