Gameplay
“It was a barkeep that got me into this mess. Yeah, I think I’ll pay me a visit when this is done.”
Never turning away from a fight, Rigwarl was known for hand-to-hand combat with the biggest, evil, and most ferocious men he encountered. Awarded the title Bristleback by the drunken mob, he was present at every tavern brawl on the road from Slom to Elze, until an innkeeper kept an eye on his track record when searching for him. Find a protector. With a little beer, Bristleback was hired to collect money, keep order, and occasionally break a leg, or two (or five, in the case of an unlucky merchant, referring to the many-legged types. such as spiders, buffalo,…).
After a night of leisure and entertainment that made both customers and themselves gradually die, Bristleback finally met a rival. "Your tusks make my eyes itch," he drawled as he demanded money from a large man from the northern wilderness. A scuffle broke out later with a dozen people in attendance. Not a single chair wasn't hit, and in the end, the impossible happened: he had his money stolen.
A week later, Bristleback's wounds had healed, and the hair had grown back, but the guardian's honor was insulted. He used his money to pay back the innkeeper, vowing to find out who came from the north and pay off the debt. And then he did something he'd never done before - practiced, and suddenly discovered his own abilities. Smiling as he stroked his hairs. Turning your back may be just the thing to do.

Maximize Quill Spray (W) first because this is your main damage skill (everytimes slime and squirt a few times, someone will run away) then maximize Bristleback (E) because this is The main skill turns you into a big boar every time you push your butt on the opponent ultimate get the right level.
