doc Today we look at the Common Gearsmith Character Topplemajig.

Adding yet another member to the Majig family, Topplemajig gives Gearsmiths their version of Entrancing Harlot. For a cost of 5 with a threshold of only 1, you get a 4/4/1. It's ability, all Characters in the opposing party lose 1 speed.

While some may quickly point to it's own speed of 1 and peg it as lousy, remember that attacking parties with varied speed Characters are a GOOD thing. Let your faster Characters clear out the blockers and save this 4/4 beat stick to get damage through to your opponent's Faction.

In comparison to other Characters that are 5 cost beat sticks with decent abilities, it's low threshold and solid str/life make it a keeper. In limited or constructed, Topplemajig will be a solid Character.

Limited: 3.5/5
Constructed: 3.5/5
 
lgmk Topplemajig is awsome. Maybe its just because I got two of these in my draft on Saturday, and maybe its just because this and the new Legacy Warmachine have helped put a whole new face on Gearsmith, but I like this card.

Here's a quick comparison. It does functionally the same thing (in most cases) as Entrancing Harlot, yet this one has only one threshold. Splashy!

The effect is useful- Topplemajig itself will be striking last almost no matter what, but if you have anything at speed four, I can almost guarentee you'll get to strike first, and alone if you attack with a party.

Oh, did I say attack? This ability works blocking too. And look at the stats on this thing!...?

Alright, they're the same stats that are on 633fy 31f with the exception of speed, and this card costs more. But for a one threshold five cost card, this is above par. If you get one of these in draft, it may not be first pick, but then again, maybe it will be. And if you get it, I'm giving you very strong odds on playing Gearsmith as at least a splash.

Constructed: 4/5
Limited: 5/5
