Torvald as know as a "Off tank" since he get reworked, so the best way to play him is with bubbles protection !
But you can also play Torvald as a "Tank Point"... Yeah try it. But be carefull, nofity your team that you are going to play Torv' as a Frontline !

OFF TANK ♥
Notes

How to play Torvald as "Off Tank" ?

- Follow your flank, or one DPS and focus the "Bubble Shield" on him. (Don't forget that, the shield is for everyone).
- Use "Nullify" to impede the enemy to escape when flank with your Flank.
- Your "Recharge" have a bigger cooldown, use with knowledge.
- Spam the "Bubble Shield" on your allies as much as you can.

- Try to buy Chronos Tier 3 for spamming more and more the "Bubble Shield" on your allies.
