This card is bonkers for Monterey Jack. Correct me if I'm wrong, but with his Trusty Bullwhip from Relics of the Past, would it not put 2 evidence on Microscope if it kills an enemy? Essentially evading AND killing the enemy at the same time?
If so, with the help of Leo De Luca, it isn't unreasonable to think that Jack could get up to 8 clues a turn.
Sadly no, because Microscope's text says "successfully evaded" which implies the evade must come from an evasion attempt, not an automatic evade. Second, I honestly am not sure if you could even separate the effects (defeat and evade) from the Bullwhip.

You can separate the effects, or at least you can respond to both the defeat and to the evade. But AlderSign is correct that the bullwhip evasion is not a successful evasion because you didn't test for it. If you want to run this nonsense, consider Kymani. They can take microscope 4 because it's a tool, and even with base int 2, testing at 8 is OK in normal difficult. And if you remove an enemy using 2 evasion tests in kymani that's 2 evidence on the microscope

Thanks for the clarification guys. Yeah Kymani would love this card, throw Stealth (3) in there and let the nonsense commence.

Kymani is very good at turning what should be singular plural.
