Analysis
Recommended Build: Rend 2/Rend 3
Rating: *****
Pygmies are good when your opponent is bad. While the pygmy has reasonable speed when it comes to getting into combat, it is perpetually AP starved once it gets into battle. Though its single hits deal impressive damage (with rend added on as well) it will get very few in without the help of supporting equipment.
If an enemy champ ends its turn next to Mr Tuttles when he has 4 stored AP, find a way to give him the additional AP needed to get a second attack. If you do so, that champion is dead.
His combo attack is by far the strongest in the game. Creating situations in which he gets more than his usual AP max (Bonesplitter Maul, Warleader, Transfusion, and Draconic Benediction) makes him an anti-superchamp. In KF/FS, always store 4 AP on turns when he does not attack (6 with accrue) whenever possible. Then, use Undertow to bring an enemy champion into his autokill range. While it is typically only worth running one in Tortun/SL, you definitely want to run two in KF/FS
