Why this works

Setting up a kill for Razor often feels a bit clumsy with this pairing. Tusk’s initiation from Snowball or a trap from Ice Shards gives Razor a window to start a Static Link, but neither ability offers the long, reliable lockdown needed to guarantee a full drain. The enemy can often simply walk away after the brief disable ends. On top of that, Tusk’s Tag Team amplifies physical damage, which conflicts with Razor's primary goal. Once Razor has successfully linked a physical damage core, their damage output is neutered, making the Tag Team bonus much less effective.

This lack of a clean kill combo can slow down their overall tempo. Instead of securing early objectives off of easy pickoffs, they risk having targets get away, which cedes map control back to the enemy. In larger teamfights, Razor needs to be a frontline presence, absorbing attention while his ultimate and link do their work. Tusk is a strong initiator, but he doesn't provide the sustained lockdown or defensive support to keep Razor alive and linking through a whole fight. They end up feeling like two heroes playing near each other rather than truly enabling one another's strengths.
