It never matters who throws the first punch, only who throws the last.

• This ability got reworked into the current Walrus PUNCH! in the 6.83 gameplay patch.

• Walrus Punch cannot miss to evasion and blindness.

• The victim is hurled into the air during the stun duration, except when the target is Roshan, who is not knocked up.

• Can punch everything, except for wards, buildings, allied and own units. Tusk will regularly attack those without wasting Walrus Punch.

• If Tusk does not land an attack during the buff duration, the bonus is lost.

• Since the damage is a simple crit, it can cleave and Tusk can lifesteal off it.

Ability Draft Notes:

Requires drafting Walrus PUNCH! to be unlocked.

Tusk may have made his name with his fists, but the wise enemy is wary of any and all limbs.

• This ability got reworked into the current Walrus Kick in the 7.31 gameplay patch.

• Requires Aghanim's Scepter to be unlocked.

• Walrus Kick is not an active attack modifier.

• Chooses the closest enemy unit within the search radius, kicking them towards the targeted point.
  • Prioritizes heroes, illusions and clones over non-hero units. Treats creep-heroes as heroes.
  • The enemy target does not need to be in front of Tusk, it can be behind him as well, as long as they are within the 250 search radius.
  • If no enemies are within range, the cooldown gets reset and the mana cost refunded.
  • Cannot target or affect ancient creeps.

• The target is kicked away from Tusk in an arc 1400 range far and 360 range high.
  • Walrus Kick cannot be overridden by any other forced movement.

• While in the air, other units may pass below the kicked unit.

• Upon cast, the stun and movement speed slow are applied at the same time, so the effective movement speed slow duration is 4 seconds.

• Walrus Kick first applies the slow debuff, then the knockback debuff, then the damage.

• Destroys trees within a 100 radius around the affected unit during the knockback.
