Definitely not for sure worse. There have been a number of games where someone abandoning is a fucking blessing because it allows me to leave that shithole of a game with no repercussions.

Stout tide is fine.

Leveling X is fine / standard.

Kunkka is incredibly flexible as a hero
1-2-2-1 is completely viable and so is 2-3-0-1 or 1-1-3-1 etc

it's basically just the build to land boat 100% of the time
I prefer 1-2-2-1 if i have to go early X, but the 3 in X build has its merits. There are certain heroes that can escape if it's only level 2 X, assuming you initiate with x that is.

It's actually pretty common.

Guaranteed boats. You should level tidebringer still, as the damage isn't too different, and you need it for farming.

UNLES YOU ARE SUPPORT KUNKKA

I'm aware of the value of the 3rd x point.

The utility of atleast 1 point in tidebringer is hard to ignore, being able to attack from pseudo-range is often what you need to get the kill.
Leaving torrent at 1 for a while isn't always wrong.

Kunkka is very flexible with his build, fun hero to play in pubs.

I forget that all the time lategame after it's level 4 and i need to manually activate it lmfao.
Like i'm playing with friends and i fire off my combo and i'm like "Gogo we got him" and then i can't return him because the combo + original X took all my mana because i was low on mana already.

Pls remove mana cost icefraud

Don't you get guaranteed boat off of guaranteed Torrent?

Or is the extra range that important?

It's not the range, if you x into torrent there's a small window of like 0.5~ second where some heroes can escape with either blinks, forcestaff, shukuchi or whatever. (I can't remember the exact time heroes have to escape and i'm too lazy to check)
Typically 2 points in x should do the trick against most heroes though, it's situational.

Oh, I thought we were just talking about average-nondescript-hero level of guaranteed instead of getting-hit-by-Void-in-Chrono level of guaranteed. My bad, thanks for clarifying.

I think the range is important. You have to like walk backwards and then cast boat, but by the time you do that they can dodge it or something.

I haven't played a lot of kunkka though so idk.
