Somehow the child of On the Hunt and Scene of the Crime ended up in the Rogue cardpool.

On the Hunt the encounter deck, then get a clue and a few bucks if you hit something non-Elite. You would still have to deal with the enemy you drew in whatever way you see fit so this essentially gives you 1 testless clue and usually 1-3 resources for a card and around two actions. The best case scenario is of course drawing an enemy you can one-shot in one or fewer actions, making this card a worthy competitor to Scene of the Crime (2 resources + 1 card + 1 action for 1-2 testless clues) as long as you can find a suitable enemy.

Emphasis on that last part, of course. This shares a problem with 0XP On the Hunt in that it can miss. It hurts less in that this card is 0-cost but also more in that it's now a wasted action. You'd probably want to consider Crystallizer of Dreams to ensure that you at least get a or icon out of this thing. Alternatively, it is also possible to only hit an exceptionally tough enemy in your search and waste your actions dealing with it. Access to testless and/or actionless damage or extra fight actions are welcome additions, and try not to play this when, for example, you know a certain Carcosa enemy that tests your intellect is in the deck. In other words, what's stopping this card from being a better Scene of the Crime is its inherent uncertainty - perhaps that's why it has found itself in the Rogue faction.

Investigators I can see taking this:

• Trish Scarborough - a decent pick for 0XP that will probably get upgraded into something else. Play it first and decide whether you want the extra clue or the auto-evade after you see the enemy.
• Tony Morgan - Tony loves fighting, and he has no lack of actions to kill whatever he kicked out of the encounter deck. Getting some clues in the meantime is just icing on the cake.
• Leo Anderson - At least in my experience, Leo is often starving for deck space because he has to slot in quite a few allies to put his own and Mitch Brown's abilities to good use, not to mention support cards for said allies and the big guns if you're playing them. Having a card that both finds clues and gives him money to fund his Assets really helps with his versatility, and his Beat Cops and Guard Dogs are more than happy to deal with the enemy.
• Zoey Samaras and Mark Harrigan - Both are powerful enemy handlers with poor , so testless clues are appreciated. They may not need that resource boost that much (even less so in the case of Zoey) depending on how you build their decks though.
• Parallel Roland Banks - Play it fast with Red Tape and get another card from Seek the Truth. As far as I know playing it fast does not count as your first action, so you can also punch the enemy in the face or grab 2 more clues from under its nose, though this combo costs you your entire Red Tape quota for the round. Parallel Roland likes fast and testless clues and this card delivers - some of the time at least.

At first this card looked quite janky to me, but on closer inspection it seems to fit in quite a lot of decks. Certainly not an auto-include by any means, but at the very least primary enemy handlers with access to Rogue cards will want to give this a look.

This is quite a strong Trish card. In my experience, the hardest thing about Trish is getting enemies into the locations you want them to be. Kicking the Hornet's nest lets you spawn an enemy (ignoring Spawn locations) in any location you are standing in. Not only does this greatly help with Trish's consistency, she even gets resources AND a testless clue for doing it!

For 1 action, you play Kicking Up the Hornet's Nest and find enemy of your choice. I've had it whiff once when there wasn't an enemy in the top 9 cards, but it's far more common to see 2-3 enemies and have a choice of what you want to spawn. You can choose an enemy with Victory Point if you want, but typically I look for enemies that will stay in play a bit. Most of the time you are hoping for a Hunter enemy that you can lead around the map to other locations that have clues on them. Not only do you now get to spawn an enemy at the most ideal location (possibly even your choice of enemy from a few options), you get paid resources and a free clue for this! Now that you've discovered a clue at a location with an enemy, you can trigger Trish's ability to get a second free clue or instantly evade the enemy. For one total action, you either get 2 testless clues plus some resources, or 1 testless clue plus resources and an evaded enemy. No matter which you choose, you are set up for future turns with an enemy at an ideal location. Presto! You just got paid money and a clue to greatly reduce the situational nature of Trish's ability! All of this for one action and a 0 xp, 0 cost event.

Best case use is to use this to spawn a Hunter early, then keep moving on from locations while leaving clues behind. So long as you stay a step ahead of the Hunter, you can use cards like Pocket Telescope, In The Know, or Damning Testimony to safely pick up the clues you left behind (two at a time, with Trish's ability, or evading the hunter if needed). I was surprised how often I could use this rope-a-dope strategy to drag a Hunter across the map, activating Trish's ability reliably multiple turns in a row.

I don't think this card is OP or that Trish is now top tier or anything, but I think this single card is enough to make me seriously reevaluate her reliability. Getting paid (in both resources and testless clues) for doing exactly what Trish wants to be doing is very good. I'm not sure how often other Rogues will want to play this (I can see Tony liking it), but I will probably never play Trish without it again.

This is one of the best bruiser cards in recent memory and is required in all bruiser builds that can take it.

The main role of the bruiser character is to keep enemies off of cluers. Most are able to do this with just a weapon up and don't need a whole lot of setup. There is nothing more annoying then, than having your bruiser spend three actions doing functionally nothing, and then the next turn you draw two enemies from mythos. You inevitably probably can't deal with both, and one of them gets to either take a free shot at you, or worse lock down your cluer.

This card does many things a typical bruiser wants to do. It thins the encounter deck of enemies by forcing a spawn now. Those three actions you would have essentially wasted, you get to now take two others doing what you're designed to do.

Honestly, the card would be great if it just did that. But it also has the potential for massive resource gain (if you pick a 3 HP enemy, you basically played an emergency cache) and you even get a clue out of it, which can help thin out particularly high shroud value locations.

It's also one of the only cards that can bypass concealment (concealment procs when you draw an enemy per wording in TSK manual, and this card specifically has you spawn the enemy, not draw it).

The only thing bad about this card is it can whiff the search. But if it does, your enemy frequency was pretty low anyway (or you just got really unlucky).

Tldr this card forces enemies on to your enemy handler, which is something they want anyway, and gives you a clue and a crap ton of resources for one action. Honestly a little too powerful and should be automatically included in any bruiser that can take it.
