Confront the Unknown
Instant
Investigate, then target creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn for each Clue you control. (Create a Clue token. It's an artifact with "
, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")

You can't cast a spell without choosing legal targets. If all of those targets become illegal, the spell doesn't resolve and you won't investigate.

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.

No player may take any action in between the two steps of Confront the Unknown, so the target creature will get at least +1/+1.

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.

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.
