What Does Hero Giant Do?

Hero Giant's ability is Heroic Hurl. After a short delay, once an enemy troop comes within close range, Giant grabs the highest-HP enemy troop nearby and throws it horizontally across the entire arena into the opposite lane, dealing damage when it lands.

This is notable because the regular Giant is one of only a handful of troops that can never deal damage to enemy troops directly - Heroic Hurl is the only way he's ever able to hurt an enemy troop, on top of repositioning it into the other lane entirely.
