Couldn't agree more with making DIRTY TRICKSTER baseline so he finally has a trait!
The talents also looks good and interesting overall. here are some ideas for improvements:

- Level 7 talents seems a bit lackluster. as two of the talents there are practically yield the same result, and you choose one of them depending on your team composition of course. So either a 4th different talent is needed (maybe something that maybe reduces DIRTY TRICKSTER whenever you hit a hero with Q or something), or some additional or different effects to better differentiate between those talents.
-Also, Burst Fire and Endless Nades can be too strong together, so I think Endless Nades should reduce the cd by ~10% (similar to Medivh temporal flux) so it doesn't get out of control.
- lastly, I think increasing RIP-TIRE hp both on basic and with a talent is too much. It will have more than 2k hp on level 20 making it really hard to destroy it, and the unique part of this ult is that its destroy-able.

Thank you for sharing this!

ps AHHHH! is the best name for a talent XD.

Not sure if it's a good idea to add the 4th one, especially that dangerous.

10% is 1.2 seconds instead of 1.25.
This won't go out of control because you will need to hit enemies with all of your grenades from Burst Fire.

Okay, I changed the effect.

My Suggestions

Junkrat severely lacks variety in both his heroics and talents.
The idea behind this rework is to give the Junker Demolitionist more variability.
