These abilities are described below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id='avalanche'  id=\"boomdevs_10\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-avalanche\"><strong>Avalanche<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is Tiny\u2019s crowd-control ability, and it deals quite a bit of damage: 75 \u2013 300. Enemies trapped by it receive bonus damage if they are also Tossed. The duration of the mini-stuns is 1.4s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mana cost: 120<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cooldown: 26s \u2013 14s<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id='toss'  id=\"boomdevs_11\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-toss\"><strong>Toss<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is Tiny\u2019s most crucial skill, especially when you play him in the Support role. It deals 75 \u2013 300 damage and throws the nearest unit in a radius around Tiny at a target location. The grab radius is 300, and the Toss range is 800 \u2013 1100. The target stays in the air for 1.4s and takes 200% Avalanche damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mana cost: 110 &#8211; 140<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cooldown: 17s \u2013 11s<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id='tree-grab'  id=\"boomdevs_12\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tree-grab\"><strong>Tree Grab<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This ability dramatically increases Tiny\u2019s damage and causes him to deal bonus building damage: 40% &#8211; 85%. It also increases his attack range to 350. Once a tree is grabbed, you can hit it five times with it before it disappears. The tree can also be thrown at a target from afar. If you buy Aghanim\u2019s Shard, you have infinite charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you throw the tree, you\u2019re using Tree Throw. This ability gives you 20% bonus damage and 40% &#8211; 100% splash damage and slows the target&#8217;s movement speed and attack speed by 20% for 2 seconds. The cast range is vast: 1200 units. This means you can help your team with a powerful nuke in any situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mana cost: 40<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cooldown: 19s \u2013 10s<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" data-id=\"5671\" src=\"https:\/\/tradeit.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-2.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5671\" data-full=\"https:\/\/tradeit.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-2.webp\" data-full-size=\"1200x675\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id='grow'  id=\"boomdevs_13\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-grow\"><strong>Grow<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This passive ability gives Tiny 50 \u2013 150 bonus attack damage, 100 \u2013 300 Toss bonus damage, 20% &#8211; 40% tree bonus damage, and 10 \u2013 20 armor. But it also reduces your attack speed by 30%. This reduction is one of the main reasons why people stopped playing Tiny in a core position and prefer to play him as Support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id='tree-volley'  id=\"boomdevs_14\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tree-volley\"><strong>Tree Volley<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can gain This potent ability by purchasing an Aghanim\u2019s Scepter. It will quickly throw multiple trees at an enemy and deal massive <a href=\"https:\/\/tradeit.gg\/blog\/which-dota-2-heroes-has-the-highest-base-damage\/\">Dota 2 damage<\/a> in a 400 radius area.

But you might make small modifications to it based on the matchup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-id=\"5672\" src=\"https:\/\/tradeit.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/6-2.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5672\" data-full=\"https:\/\/tradeit.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/6-2.webp\" data-full-size=\"1600x900\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id='combo'  id=\"boomdevs_16\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-combo\"><strong>Combo<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When playing Tiny, your basic combo is to blink in, Avalanche one or more targets, Toss one of them, and then use your basic attacks to get the job done. Sometimes you will Toss a mark into the Avalanche itself. Other times you will Toss it toward your team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='game-plan'  id=\"boomdevs_17\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-game-plan\"><strong>Game Plan<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is what good Tiny players do in terms of tactics and strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id='early-game-1'  id=\"boomdevs_18\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-early-game-1\"><strong>Early Game<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the early game, your goal is to roam around the map and create opportunities for your team. If you can Toss an enemy hero into your tier 1 tower, the odds of getting the kill are high. Because of that, you should try to keep the creep wave as close to your tower as possible and then harass the enemy team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tiny can also stack camps in the early game for himself or one of his teammates. The goal is to farm enough to buy your essential items and save enough gold to buy yourself a Blink Dagger. Once you have your Dagger, you can make a big difference by orchestrating smoke swindles and team fights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id='mid-game-1'  id=\"boomdevs_19\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mid-game-1\"><strong>Mid Game<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>During the mid game, you will be the most crucial initiator for your team. You should always be where the action is and not waste too much time farming.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leave the safe farming areas to your cores and focus instead on hunting down the enemy team. If you have good wards on the other side of the map, you should be able to spot many opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id='late-game-1'  id=\"boomdevs_20\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-late-game-1\"><strong>Late Game<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the late game, Tiny goes from being a pure initiator to a solid damage dealer. You can do a lot to help your team when it comes to sieging enemy buildings. By the 35-minute mark, you should have a Black King Bar in many cases, but you could also go for an Aghanim\u2019s Scepter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='counters'  id=\"boomdevs_21\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-counters\"><strong>Counters<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tradeit.gg\/blog\/the-best-dota-2-heroes-for-beginners\/\">Dota 2 best heroes<\/a> with excellent movement speed and magic damage naturally counter Tiny. Examples include Leshrac, Necrophos, Viper, and Venomancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='advantageous-matchups'  id=\"boomdevs_22\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-advantageous-matchups\"><strong>Advantageous Matchups<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tiny is good against heroes who can\u2019t escape easily once their position has been compromised. He\u2019s also good against heroes that can be killed quickly with a burst of physical damage. Examples include Slark, Pugna, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='most-used-skins'  id=\"boomdevs_23\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-most-used-skins\"><strong>Most Used Skins<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are numerous Dota 2 skins that you can utilize when playing Tiny.
