Recently, a reddit user name Roya14 posted a suggestion on Reddit regarding Tusk's skill. As everyone knows, Tusk’s 1st skill is Ice Shard and 2nd skill is Snowball. Ice shard is normally used to block enemy heroes from moving forward and running away. However, the ice shard sometimes just stop at the wrong place and it blocks allies heroes from chasing the enemy instead of blocking the enemy heroes from running away. Therefore, Roya14 suggested to have a preview on where the ice shard will stop when the player cast the skill.

From the photo above, the green ice shard will eventually help the player to indicate where the shard will stop and this can prevent silly things to happen when the skill is cast. It also makes aiming shards for hero blocks and cutting choke points easier.
For the skill, Snowball, when a player cast the skill, allies within 100 radius will be automatically pulled into the snowball and allies within 400 radius can also be added in by right-clicking on them. The problem is, when your teammate is the user of Tusk and (s)he added you into the snowball, you yourself have no psychological preparation at all and you have no idea which hero is the snowball rolling to, especially when all the enemy heroes are close to each other, retreating. Therefore, Roya14 suggested to add an indicator of on top of the enemy hero who is being aimed, just like Barathrum’s charge.

This will greatly help Tusk’s teammates to be ready to war as they know who they are approaching, who is going to be stunned.
Let’s all support this great idea and hopefully Valve will notice this and implement it !
