Temur's favorite aspect is savagery. There's nothing more savage than a creature picking off it's foes one by one dealing damage to them directly.
With Briarbridge Patrol being our focus card for us here along with a ton of "deal damage to creature" spells it's entirely too easy to flood the field with Clues.
Throw in some Tireless Tracker's and the land search spells to ramp and whenever those land(s) enter the battlefield it's triggered ability puts out more Clues.

With Briarbridge Patrol being our main WinCon it makes the decision of when to sacrifice a Clue more interesting.
You don't always want to do it as soon as possible in order to draw a card. If you can save up three and sacrifice all three in a turn thanks to the mana ramp this deck provides you can put anything in play for free from hand. Yes, any creature no matter how much it costs. Things like Confront the Unknown also reward you for saving those Clues.
As far as Briarbridge goes it's important that it says, "Deals Damage" and not only "Deals Combat Damage" to a creature.
You can just as easily Investigate with the "Fight" cards and cards that make him deal direct damage to creatures.
Have him deal direct damage via;
Both those cards are good for dealing damage without having to fight them where they deal damage back to it.
Probably my favorite one because it'll deal 3 damage to every creature and put a token out for each one it does deal damage to.
Retreat to Kazandu and one of the Nissa spells putting 2-3 lands into play puts +1/+1 counters on a couple creatures. Then Nissa's Judgment has all of them creatures, hopefully a couple Briarbridge Patrol, deal direct damage to one of their creatures. Pretty good removal.
Trail of Evidence casting the fight/deal damage spells or all the land searcher spells or Confront the Unknown will give us more and more clues.
Erdwal Illuminator more clues.
