General DiscussionAny tips to play tusk? or how to keep momentum as tusk

Trash hero

imo this is a stack hero. not for solo q

-Get a friend to play Meepo.
-Select enemy hero to snowball into.
-Put every hero + every single Meepo inside the snowball.
-Watch the snowball move at the speed of light.
-Collect gold and tears.

You gotta snowball to be effective.

Very team dependent hero when solo wueing unless you have them convinced you will mid or feed.

If you have a team where you can partner up and roam gank that is also ideal.

You would do better with roaming tusk with an active support as I often do, most of my gold comes from kills and not from farming.

...get a bottle, you will need it.

Centaur + Tusk = Good lane combo!

Yeah, and Centaur Ult works with snowball, it's great.
I'm still trying to work out what items I want to buy early game on this guy. Might be armlet vlads, might have something to do with vanguard, or amulet/urn, its like he needs mana regen, hp regen, and damage all at the same time. Battle fury might make sense, but he's an active hero who wants to be fighting all the time. Or is he?

@havoc

ye thats what i do.. i dont farm .. as you can see in my last two games of tusk. though i go with wand and arcanes

Awful hero

Only his E is annoying as fuck

Try him mid?

Go for the phase and as much as possible keep items to damage, minus armor as his mana cost on stuff is really low so mana boots weaken his presence by quite a bit.

Mid tusk might be decent i have to try it

better dont play him at all. its useless in d2 with this charging snowball. its effective only when snowball actually reaches its target.
