You can't sacrifice a Clue to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Clue token to activate its own ability and also to activate Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's ability.
wotc8 Apr 2016
You can cast Expose Evil with no targets if you only want to investigate.
wotc8 Apr 2016
Clue is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some cards with other permanent types, it's never a creature type, a land type, or anything but an artifact type.
wotc8 Apr 2016
If an effect refers to a Clue, it means any Clue artifact, not just a Clue artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Wrench to pay for Alquist Proft, Master Sleuth's activated ability.
wotc8 Apr 2016
If Expose Evil has at least one target and all of those targets become illegal, the spell doesn't resolve and you won't investigate.
