Needle is a Companion that the player can bring along on a run. They are exclusive to the Clunkmasters Tribe.

Strategy

Needle provides another use for Junk.png Junk outside of paying Recycle costs, effectively turning every Trash ability into an equivalent Draw ability. Destroying Junk also allows them to synergize with cards like Nom & Stompy.png Nom & Stompy and Blundertank.png Blundertank, getting even more value out of destroyed Junk without needing Recycle cards.

Since Needle's base Counter.png Counter is 4, their attacks line up perfectly with the Redraw Bell's charge time. If Needle is deployed in the first turn of battle, they will always attack right before the Redraw Bell becomes fully charged, ensuring that the player doesn't discard any Junk to be shuffled back into the deck (unless Junk was generated after Needle attacked, such as by Junkhead.png Junkhead being hit).

The Fidget Charm.pngFidget Charm can turn powerful Recycle cards into Trash cards, allowing them to be played freely while also generating Junk for Needle to destroy. If Needle can gain Frenzy.png Frenzy from any source, their successive Frenzy attacks will destroy any Junk drawn by the previous attack, making them extremely efficient at cleaning up excess Junk from the deck.
