Trunk beats
Playing Trunk
reviewed 19 Jul 2026A 5,200-health tank with a three-tile attack whose Super sends a stream of ants out to seven tiles to keep working without him.
Early game
Hold the choke and take chip to build the Super, because his attack barely reaches three tiles and chasing anyone across open ground is how he dies.
Positioning
At the front of covered ground, since everything he does personally happens within three tiles and the ants are what cover the distance he cannot.
Using your Super
The swarm is sustained pressure rather than burst, so send it at the objective or at a brawler pinned in a fight rather than at someone with a clear line out.
Common mistakes
- Walking at a marksman across open ground with nothing to close the last tiles
- Sending the ants at a fleeing target rather than at the point being contested
- Fighting away from cover, where a three-tile attack never gets used
- Modes with a fixed objective the ants can pressure while he holds the choke
- Brawl Ball, where the swarm keeps the goal mouth busy
- Cluttered maps where he can close three tiles without being kited
By mode
The swarm holds the net while he lines up the shot.
The ants contest a circle even while he is walking back from a death.
