Tinkerson Jr. is a Companion that the player can bring along on a run. They are exclusive to the Clunkmasters Tribe.
Strategy
Tinkerson Jr.'s use is for Junk decks to give Junk a use other than paying for Recycle costs. At base, Tinkerson Jr. turns Junk into
Scrappy Swords, but using buffs and Charms, they can scale the strength of Junk. However, unless their
attack can be consistently and significantly increased, making Junk more powerful is not particularly useful in the late game. Base Scrappy Swords fall off in usefulness quickly, and the same goes for any Junk that isn't substantially buffed. Some Clunkmaster Leaders have similar effects that give a fixed amount of extra attack to Junk, so Tinkerson Jr. pairs well with such Leaders to get even more mileage out of Junk.
Although Tinkerson Jr. is generally straightforward, they have a couple nuanced points. Tinkerson Jr. prevents Mini Mika from working effectively, as hitting Mini Mika with buffed Junk will hurt them. Additionally, using Junk to hit something will put the Junk into the discard pile, so it cannot pay Recycle costs.
One of the best cards to boost Tinkerson Jr.'s attack is the Forging Stove, since the Clunkmasters have access to multiple cards with good attack, such as the
Proto-Stomper and
I.C.G.M. By using Crowns, it's possible to guarantee that Tinkerson Jr. gets the attack buff.
Beyond the ability to improve Junk, Tinkerson Jr. has enough health to take a few hits, making them a decent defensive option if there are no better alternatives.
