Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Tusk wins the Timbersaw vs Tusk matchup: Tusk beats Timbersaw in 52.24% of 492 ranked matches.
You might think Timbersaw is happy to get hit by a melee hero and stack up Reactive Armor, but Tusk has the right tools to cause problems. It’s all about the control. A well-placed Ice Shards can physically block the path for Timber Chain, trapping him completely. That lockdown opens him up for Tusk's allies to pile on damage. Snowball is also a great way to save a teammate that Timbersaw dives on, turning the gank around. Tusk doesn't usually kill Timbersaw on his own; instead, he creates the opportunity for his team to do it by holding the slippery hero in place.
