Tusk Offlane

Key Strategy

Key strategic elements to consider when playing Tusk

• Most of your laning kills will come from well placed Ice Shards. Constantly look for opponents out of position.
• When you or your allies are in trouble, you can do a Snowball save or Ice Shard the opponents away.
• Ice Shards provide vision so you can use them to scout pillars for wards or Roshan pit.
• If you have the Tag Team facet, pop Tag Team before using Walrus Punch to maximize on damage.
• If you have the Tag Team facet, Tusk enables the team to take an early Roshan due to the extra damage with your team.
• Pick up Aghanims Scepter as it is an amazing repositioning, kiting, and waveclear tool.
• If you have the Tag Team facet, you can use both Tag Team and Ice Shard while Snowballed. Particularly helps in stopping enemy heroes fleeing from Snowball.
