Why this works

Trying to set the tempo with this duo often feels awkward. Tusk wants to create chaos with Snowball and find a quick kill, but Chen needs to slowly group his army for a structured push. By the time Chen's creeps are in position to hit a tower, Tusk is often looking for a different fight entirely. Their game plans don't really overlap, leaving both heroes feeling a bit ineffective. This isn't a pair you see often, so maybe there's a specific timing that makes it work, but they generally seem to pull in different directions.
