 Notes
Kutkh would be a skill expressive mixed damage hero.
His gun requires perfect aim and ammo management.

Early game keeping Beast healthy would be your main goal. Placing her behind cover and applying pressure with her is crucial to keep up. Kutkh is very weak without Beast so losing her early could be lane deciding.

Use Fetch to engage with Beast early getting chip damage. Once fully upgraded Fetch becomes a great teamfight tool letting her dash through the whole team weakening them for a follow up.

Howl has 2 main uses. For the close range fights of early game hitting both howls is brutal. And for long range fights if Beast is near your target, not only will Howl mess up their aim but it will also make them more vulnerable.

Since Beast is technically your hero dealing spirit damage, if you have spirit lifesteal or mystic regeneration Beast simply attacking will keep you healthy. Beast active importantly does not trigger effects like Spellslinger.

Beast's damage only scales with spirit until Offering is fully upgraded but even then Beasts only health gained is based largely on how well you have been farming with offering. While a useful 1v1 tool sometimes you'll have to just get stacks from troopers or camps. An early game compress cooldown would likely be crucial to maintain Beast's scaling.

Dumb little drawing I made of them
