Tusk Lore & Background Story
Ymir is a jovial brawler who fights for the sheer joy of a good punch. His snowball rolls through the battlefield collecting allies for team initiations. He treats war like a bar fight — chaotic, personal, and best enjoyed with friends. His walrus punch has ended more arguments than diplomacy ever could. His closest ally is Bristleback, a fellow brawler who shares his love of tavern fights and his contempt for anyone who overthinks a good punch.
