How this matchup plays

Looking for a hero to disrupt an early pushing strategy can be tricky, but Tusk has the right tools to make life difficult for Chen. The main problem Chen’s army presents is overwhelming a single target, and Tusk’s kit is great for breaking that up. Ice Shards can separate the creeps from their master or block their path to a tower, buying crucial time. Snowball is also a perfect answer for saving an ally who gets caught, letting them ride to safety and resetting the gank. Finally, Tusk is a strong roamer who can find and punish Chen in the jungle, slowing down the pace that Chen needs to be effective.
