Hello friends! Since i’ve seen quite a lot of bad ES guide, I decided to write one myself for the ones who want to play him, read those guides and then proceed to feed and call the hero underpowered/too hard.
The hero itself is not hard, all you need are fast fingers.
Let’s start with the basic question: Who is Earth Spirit?
Earth Spirit is a strenght hero, brother of Storm Spirit and Ember Spirit. He’s a very good offlaner, but can do fine on mid or be a babysitter. He’s mostly centered on utility – a stun (also force staff), a slow (also escape/initiation), a silence (also save) and a DPS skill (also fun killer). If you want to know more about his skills and what they do, please check the wiki.
Early game
Offensive or defensive – depends on your lineup. One thing is sure: you need LEVELS. Levels is what keeps you going. As an offlaner, this should be quite easy since all you have to do is stay in the exp range, same for mid. As a lane support life will be harder, however not impossible. You have to stack and pull as much as you can, and also, depending on your lane parner, try to kill the enemy.
Mid Game
This is where you shine. You have 6 rock charges, arcane boots, an urn of shadows and a lot of possibilities. Now what?
Well, now you should start ganking. Here’s an obvious tip: gank the casters (not you, Tobi). They rely on spells to be efective and usually have a small amount of hp. Another type of heroes would be agility heroes with escape skills. Mirana, Slark (when not fed), Weaver (risky) and Bounty Hunter are some examples that should be easily taken down in a 1v1 situation.
If the enemy team is playing together you’ll have to play more defensive. Stick around your carry to help him escape danger and defend the towers with your team. Even when going up against 5 people, don’t hesitate be the one who initiates. You have to be in the middle of them in order to land the magnetize, and your team will probably follow up with some stuns and…stuff.
Late Game
This is no longer the time for you to initiate, but now you have to keep crowd control. By that I mean you have to be ready to stun, silence, pull, push, roll, slow, use mek/pipe/shiva and (if possible) land your ult on them. You don’t have to be always in the front anymore, but don’t stay back either. Try to find ways to stop certain enemies from using certain skills to win certain teamfights that you should win.
Item Build
Stout Shield
Tangoes, a Healing Salve
2 GG Branches
(Optional) Courier, Wards, Clarity potions
Everything is situational on Earth Spirit, so you can’t have the same itembuild on every game. However, there are some items that you should consider:
Stout Shield – You’re gonna be tanking creeps and enemies 90% of the time, not getting a stout shield would be silly.
Magic Stick – Yes, the stick will be enough for you. If you’re not going to make mek you can upgrade it into a wand.
Arcane Boots – Because without mana you just hit, which won’t really help.
Urn of Shadows – Gives even more utility, and makes up for the hp lost in ganks.
Mekansm – Gives nice stats, armor and a burst heal for you and your team. Adds utility and keeps you alive.
Vanguard – Only consider this if you have mana problems or someone already bought mek.
Force Staff – Adds more utility, helps you and your teammates position yourselves better.
Blink Dagger – Alternative for Force Staff, get this if you’re more concerned about getting close to the enemy or making sure you get to pull the endangered allies.
Veil of Discord – Had to add this, but I wouldn’t really recommend it. Adds utility, and it can be worth if your team does mostly magic damage.
Shiva’s Guard – Luxury item, gives you a lot of armor and has a nice aura and active skill.
Rod of Atos – If you need some help in stunning or rolling over people, RoA will help you achieve that.
Pipe of Insight – Not always needed since you can silence enemies, a pipe will keep you and your allies alive against strong magic nukers (Zeus, OD)
Combos (From easy to hard)
Start the roll towards the enemy
Place a rock behind the enemy
Pull the rock towards you, making the roll “eat” the rock and slowing your enemy by 80% (note you’ll end up behind him)
Follow the same steps for number 1
Push the enemy back to your tower/ally/creepwave
3. Roll-Stun (-Ult-Silence)
Start the roll towards your enemy
Place a rock in front of you (not too close, not too far!)
Use your Boulder Smash on the rock as fast as possible. This will make you both “eat” and push the rock, both stunning and slowing an enemy
(Optionally) Follow up with your ultimate, summon a rock and pull it to damage and silence the enemy
Summon a rock in front of you
Use Boulder Smash on the rock towards the enemy
(Optional: start rolling) After the enemy got stunned and damaged, pull the rock back to you
Roll to your enemy, slowing and damaging them
5. Stun-Blink-Pull-Ult (Requires Blink Dagger)
Summon a rock in front of you and Boulder Smash it towards an enemy
Blink to the stunned enemy
Pull the rock back and start your ult
Remember, hard doesn’t always mean better!
Tips and Tricks:
While under the effects of Magnetize, try to roll to your enemy, but place a rock between you and him so that the rock is still inside the search range of Magnetize
When ganking someone with Magnetize and you’re not sure whether you’ll get the kill or nor, try to leave Boulder Smash for last, so that when he’s trying to escape you can smash a rock towards him and stun/damage him, or at least refresh the magnetize effect.
There’s a fine line between bravery, and stupidity. Don’t roll alone into a group of enemies or someone that is more powerful than you. You’re a powerful hero, but you’re not God.
ALWAYS carry a tp, so that you can turn fights around or save some allies.

Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, is a melee agility hero, best known for his slippery nature and his ability to do Mischief, deceiving his enemies by turning into trees and other objects. Armed with his magic extending staff, the Monkey King slams the ground with Boundless Strikes, and leaps to the treetops to have advantage over his foes with Tree Dance. Perched on a tree, he gains a clear view of his surroundings, allowing him to jump down on unsuspecting targets, dealing heavy damage and slowing their escape with Primal Spring. As a carry, the Monkey King is granted extra damage and lifesteal from Jingu Mastery after landing consecutive attacks on his opponents. In a teamfight, at Wukong’s Command an army of clones is sent out across the battlefield to fight for him, while he himself has his armor increased. Together with the help of his clones and his team, the Monkey King is a force to be reckoned with.

Bio [ edit ]
For 500 years the mountain pressed down upon him, only his head free from the crushing weight of the stonewrought prison the elder gods had summoned to halt his childish rebellion. Moss grew along the lines of his exposed face, tufts of grass sprouted from his ears; his vision was framed in wildflowers reaching from the soil around his cheeks. Most thought him long dead, tormented by the gods for waging war against the heavens until naught but his legend survived. But, as the stories go, the Monkey King cannot die.
So he waited. Until the gods came to offer a chance at absolution, he endured. And when they did come to name the price, Sun Wukong accepted their charge: he would accompany a young acolyte on a secret pilgrimage, protect him from demons and dangers of the road, and guide the man home in possession of a coveted relic. Do that, and humbly obey the human’s commands in service to their holy mission, and Wukong would prove himself reformed.
For a change, Sun Wukong fulfilled his oath to the gods with honor, and atoned for the sins of past insurrections. The acolyte, much learned in hardships, was returned to his home temple, relic in hand; and Wukong-finding himself for the first time in proper standing with any gods of consequence-was content for a short while to give up his old thirst for adventure and glory. But the Monkey King was born for mischief. and offending the gods never gets old.

Best Beginner Heroes to Get You Started Playing Dota 2
I’m going to go against the tide here and recommend that new players play carries or cores and lane with experienced support. Whenever I am introducing friends to Dota 2, I always recommend that they pick a carry and come safe lane with me. It is much easier to focus on killing heroes than it is to learn the complexities of setting up fights, ensuring enough vision and detection that the team can make confident decisions on whether or not to engage. Pulling and stacking creeps is harder than it sounds, and requires strict timing and clock management. So here is a curated list of heroes I would suggest to anyone who wants to begin playing Dota. All heroes on dota 2
Phantom Assassin
PA has always been a great hero to stomp pubs. With some new buffs in the latest patch, Phantom Assassin is one of the best heroes for new players to start carrying with. Why Phantom Assassin is a good hero for beginners: Simple but versatile itemisation.
Why Phantom Assassin is a good hero for beginners: Very easy to execute (it’s a two button hero after all) Good counter pick against popular, squishy carries like Sniper, Drow Ranger and Anti Mage.
Wraith King
The king of wraiths or previously known as Skeleton King has always been a staple beginner carry. Often memed for being a one button hero, it’s still powerful and has a fantastic mechanic that stifles rampant feeding: reincarnation. Why Wraith King is a good hero for beginners: Different ways to build this carry due to versatile itemisation choices. Roshan’s new Refresher Orb after 7.07 patch allows for fantastic triple or even quadruple reincarnation plays. The right balance of tankiness and damage dealing.
Sniper
Sniper is one of the most famous heroes with Dota newcomers, and with good reason. He might be a bit too squishy to stand toe-to-toe with other heroes, but that’s not how he’s supposed to be played. Usually a Carry hero (the role designated for dishing out massive damage later in the game), the Sniper is most effective when he’s at a distance from his target.
Why Sniper is a good hero for beginners: His Take Aim ability lets him strike at enemy heroes and towers from far out of harm’s way. While his Ultimate, Assassinate, deals extraordinary damage with a mini-stun as a bonus. Just be sure to avoid close range combat. Sniper’s low health makes him an easy target for opponents who can close the gap.
Bristleback
Not only is he tough to kill, but he can dish out a lot of damage. The more quills he shoots, the stronger he gets, making it a simple process to rack up some serious killing power. If that wasn’t enough, he also moves faster as well! He indeed is a great character to start with, because he’s just so hard to kill even a novice will find it hard to get into a situation they can’t get out of.
Why BristleBack is a good hero for beginners: His entire gimmick is that he takes considerably less damage from attacks that hit his side or back. He also will automatically unleash quills that damage those hitting him. Also adding to his ease of use is the fact he only has 2 active abilities, while the other two are passive.

The Ultimate DOTA 2 Gu > 29 Dec , 2016
DOTA 2 is one of the biggest MOBA games available on PC, with online tournaments to massive live-championships and big prize pools to be won.
DOTA 2 is complex. Gamers who are new or looking to step up their game in DOTA 2 will need to learn as much as possible to win big.
And here’s how you can do it.

The Journey to Going Pro in DOTA 2
You’ll take away plenty from this guide if you’re aspiring to go pro in DOTA 2, or simply want to improve your skills.
Don’t Rush The Game
In any kind of MOBA game, you never want to rush.
Rushing to push, gank, kill, and do everything else is only going to bring down your team in the long run.
It’s a good idea to farm. Farming will help you build XP and Gold while being able to buy better upgrades, in turn letting you take over the opposing team’s base. Play the long game!
Don’t Cheap Out At The Beginning
Almost every MOBA player will tell you it’s a good idea to buy the basic items at the beginning: potions, boots, and daggers are good places to start.
The boots and daggers will give your hero the main boost in ATK and Speed at the beginning, allowing you to farm much easier.
Master Your Hero
No one becomes a pro without having master their main (hero). You know you’re playing with or against experienced players if they use the same main in every game.
For new players: if you want to master a hero or figure out your play style, then it may be a good idea to play with the same hero for four weeks. You don’t want to miss out on the best character for your style without exploring a bit.
This gives you the chance to get comfortable with your hero’s role, often one of these:
While you’re trying to master your hero, you’ll also get used to the gameplay mechanics and what you need to work on to achieve more wins.
The best way to master your hero is to play with the same hero for three to four days.
This gives you the chance to get comfortable with your chosen hero and decide if their gameplay style is for you: rush, gank or tank.

The mini-map will help you respond quickly to what’s going on near you rather than the close-up view you have on your hero.
You’ll also be able to scope out the situation when your opponents are far away—they won’t always be in plain sight, so take the opportunity to set up some traps.
Practice Makes Perfect
It’s true that “practice makes perfect.” Make time for the game, and think critically about what you want to achieve in specific games. Check out this subreddit thread on practicing in DOTA 2. You can find a lot of useful tips from players who have done this before.
Awesome Play On Your A-Game
Make your decisions confidently. This is the key to practicing as a DOTA 2 player because your actions are building blocks for a larger strategy. Some missteps aren’t going to make or break anything.
Confidence allows you to think straight and make logical sense of all of your gameplay decisions. And confidence comes from practice and experience, one match at a time.
Observe Everything
In DOTA 2 there are a lot of things going on at once. It takes real strategy to observe everything but the more you start observing, the better you’ll get.
Stay on top of everything that’s going on in your practice sessions, and don’t develop tunnel vision. Keeping an ear to the ground is the key winning! Watch for:
the environment
teammates’ actions
opponent’s actions
traps
When you’re beginning to observe everything, it becomes quite clear where your hero should be, where you should be setting up traps, and the best places to farm at the beginning of your game.
Every time you practice observation, you begin to act quicker.
You’re on your way to becoming a pro in DOTA 2.

Ulfsaar, the Ursa Warrior (or simply Ursa), is a melee agility hero whose abilities’ main focus is the increase of attack damage, allowing for some of the most impressive sustained damage in the entire game.
He specializes in increasing damage against one target. His abilities allow him to attack with almost maximum speed and gain bonus damage with each consecutive hit on a single target. With the abilities Overpower and Fury Swipes, Ursa can often savage beefy targets for as much as 700 damage per hit. He is a ferocious jungler and straightforward attacker, able to solo even Roshan at low levels if he has lifesteal. Ursa is a carry who can snowball if he is farmed, but the array of anti-melee abilities existing even by the early game and his lack of any counterspells may cripple his potential, especially as strong nukers and heroes with the ability to evade him make him a hero reliant on spellcasters on his team. Although an agility hero, Ursa’s base strength and strength gain make him very durable.

An attack charge is lost whenever an attack is executed, regardless of outcome. This means missed attacks use up charges as well.
The number of charges left is visible on the buff icon.
Successive casts do not stack, but refresh the whole amount of charges instead.
On each attack Fury Swipes first adds 1 stack and then deals damage based on the stack count.

Magic Stick combines with earlier Iron Branches to make a Magic Wand .
Wind Lace if the enemy laner has more movement speed than Ursa, this gives him enough movement speed to continue chasing them down.
Ring of Basilius is a useful item to keep Ursa’s mana issues at bay. It can also be built into a Vladmir’s Offering , which is definitely a viable option for Ursa. Dota 2 ursa rampage game
Orb of Venom puts another slow in Ursa’s arsenal, giving more chasing power.
Morbid Mask naturally synergizes well with Ursa’s high physical damage, greatly increasing his staying power on the map. It also gives him a tool to take on Roshan.
Phase Boots prov >Magic Wand may be useful to supplement Ursa’s poor mana pool and save him from bad situations.
Vladmir’s Offering or other sources of lifesteal are key to Ursa’s success and his workings as a hero. Lifesteal allows him to take Roshan with ease and keep his current health high. Also lifesteal work with Fury Swipes, so Ursa can devastate any enemy by leeching a lot of health when some Fury Swipes are already placed.

This guide will explain how to create a stylized banner for your team in Dota 2.
Before we get started you are going to need a few tools so you can follow along with the guide.
You will need some form of image editor. In this guide I will be using Adobe Photoshop CS5 but other versions of the program should work just fine. You can use GIMP or PAINT. NET as a free alternative to Photoshop as well.
Additionally you are going to need the Dota 2 Banner Templates. You can create everything yourself from scratch but the Dota 2 team have created some pretty great starting points which we will be using in this tutorial.
You can find links to all of the necessary stuff below.
You have four separate spots for branding when you create a team. To edit your team logos navigate to the Community tab on the main menu within Dota 2. Once you are there you will be able to click on the My Teams tab and then choose Edit Logo located at the bottom of the pane.
Below is an explanation of each logo and where they will be placed within the game, along with their corresponding size requirements.
Team Interface Logo: This image will be used on the HUD, lobbies and so on. This image will be re-sized to 250 x 150 pixels. Below is where you will see this image in the game.
Team Sponsors: This image will be used to display team sponsorship on a Team Profile panel. It will be re-sized to 250 x 150 pixels. Below is where you will see this image in the game.
Team Base Logo: This logo will be used to decorate your in-game base. It will be re-sized to 256 x 256 pixels. Below is where you will see this image in the game.
Team Banner Logo: This logo will be placed on your in-game banners. It will be re-sized to 256 x 256 pixels. Below is where you will see this image in the game.
The primary focus of this gu >
Before we begin you will need to figure out what it is you want to use for your banners. In this tutorial I will be creating a fake team called “Tiny Cat”. I will be using images of my cat called Matilda, she’s cute.
If you’d like to follow along with this tutorial using the same images I use you can find them below.
Unlike other Source games, Dota 2 handles transparent images in a more native way. Instead of relying on Alpha Channels, Dota 2 is able to import a transparent PNG and have it read it in a way you would expect.
The Interface, Sponsor and Base Logo areas handle transparency normally. The only exception is the Banner Logo. Try to imagine that the banners have no background to them at all. If you imported a transparent image in to the game, the only areas that will render will be the visible parts of the image. In other words the image you are importing is not being layered on to something else, it just floats there.
When I import this image in to Dota 2 without any transparency all I get is a basic rectangle shape for my banner.
If I erase some areas of the image I start to form a different shape, notice that nothing is rendered in the transparent areas.
You’ll also probably notice that only half of the image is being shown. This is because when the image is imported in the game it is draped over a pole. The left side will be displayed from the front and the right side will be displayed from the back. With the default game camera you will primarily see the front side of the pole only. In other words you have 256 x 128 of usable space for the front, and 256 x 128 usable space for the back.
The Dota 2 team has provided some excellent starting points for creating team banners. They have included some basic shapes along with some nice textures which you can use to improve your banner and to make it look good within the game. If you don’t already have the team banner templates you can grab them here.
For this tutorial I will be using the template titled border_invertedarrow_00. Open up the image in Photoshop by going to File > Open and selecting the template.
With the template open the first thing we are going to do is create a new layer. You can do this by going to the Layers panel and selecting the Create New Layer option. I’ve highlighted this selection below.
Once you have created a new layer the next thing we are going to do is move it so it’s underneath the template. You can do this by selecting the layer on the panel and dragging it underneath the existing layer.
Any image imported on this layer will now show up underneath the template.
Open up the image you want to use for your banner and copy it so it’s on your clipboard. Go back to Photoshop and paste it in, you can do this by tapping Control + V or by going to Edit > Paste. You should now have something which looks similar to what I have below.
If you’re using the same images as I am the scale will be way off when you first import it. Click on the Move Tool and make sure you have Show Transform Controls checked at the top. Once this is turned on you will see some areas around the image that you can use to resize it. Grab one of the corners and hold down Shift on your keyboard. This will keep the image constrained perfectly so it’s impossible to make it look squished or deformed.
When you’re done you should have something which looks like this.
You can repeat this process until you have completed making your banner. In my example I didn’t cover the back area of the banner so I created another new layer underneath the template one and imported a second image to fill up all of the white space.
The next part in the process is to remove the excess areas which are outside of the banner template. Because the templates have a thick border this is very easy to do. Make sure you are happy with your banner design before proceeding as it will not be as easy to edit it past this point.
Hold down Shift and select every layer besides the one which has the banner template on it. With everything selected, right click and choose Merge Layers.
Your Layers panel should now look something like this. Both the front and back are all on one layer and the template is on another.
Select the Polygon Lasso tool by right clicking the Lasso tool on the Tools Menu. This will bring up a sub-menu where the Polygon Lasso tool will be an option.
Select the layer which has your design on it and trace around the areas which fall outside of the template. Because the border of the template is thick it doesn’t have to be precise, so long as it doesn’t go inside of the banner. You should have something which looks like this.
Hit Delete on your keyboard and you’re done! If you followed along with this guide exactly you should now have something which looks like this.
All you need to do now is save your work. Go to File > Save As and choose PNG on the drop down menu.
All you need to do now is test it out in Dota 2 to see how it looks. Navigate to your team profile by going to Community > My Teams > Edit Team Info. Import the banner we just created under the Team Banner Logo section.
To test it out on the map create a Private Lobby by going to Play > Create Lobby. When you join a team a drop-down menu will appear at the top which will allow you to select your team. This will activate your team logos on the map.
And there we have it! You have successfully created a stylized team banner to show off your team in-game. Have fun and be creative. See if you can come up with some unique shapes and ideas, think outside the box!
