Today’s grave
robber is a two-fer. The uncommon Gearsmith
character Scavengemajig.
For a cost of 4 with a threshold of 3, this is a
non-splashable 2/1/3. But for any deck running a
solid presence of Gearsmith (which means Luteoderm
Prototype!), this will get consideration. Just the
thought of doubling up on Luteoderm Prototype is
enough you make your mouth water! (or is it just
me?)
But if you are not heavy on Gearsmith, the cheaper
option is Tri-Pole Magnet. And with that, the Gear
card goes directly into play. But then again, why
not go with them both and effectively use 12
Prototypes? Now we’re talking!
In limited, he’ll probably rarely make the cut. In
constructed, we’ll probably only see him
sporadically.
Limited: 3/5
Constructed: 3.5/5

Scavengemajig
is another one of those cards that was downgraded
from the Beta version. Luckily the threshold was
downgraded along with its ability. The ability
however is interesting. It adds any item in your
discard pile to your hand whenever this card enters
or leaves play.
That's two items you get back for the cost of four.
It had better be something good because the majig's
stats are terrible for the cost. It seems to me that
the item you are most likely to be fetching is
Jacque's Trap. Other items tend to be more
permanent.
Gears are the exception. You could very well find
yourself retrieving some valuable gear card. The
problem is that unlike the old version, this one
requires that you pay to play the gear cards at some
later point in time. The old one put them straight
into play. A much better ability. Now, I don't
particularly want that kind of ability in the game,
but the point remains that the downgraded one isn't
useful except in a select few decks. It is important
to note however that it is the only method for
getting any item back from the discard pile-
Tri-Pole Magnet only works with gears.
