The fact that earthshaker's kit hasn't changed since dota allstars, really shows how well designed he is.
He slightly changed from dota 1 though.
Bone, Viper and Morph.... changed a lot -.-
@@ahmadmuraish1144 He means to say the core of his kit has not been changed much at all and he only got 2 notably visually distinct changes which are his goofy looking jumping Aghanim's upgrade and his shard that gave unique properties to his Fissure.
@ahmadmuraish1144 his spells are all the same, they only tweaked how they work and modified numbers
I miss his tauren/minotauresque past tho
Earthshakers lore in dota 2 just gets me every time. He was a non sentient non living not existent pile of rocks, that during an earth quake (rememver while not being sentient) sentiently decided so hard to be something, that he became something. Now THAT is dedication
A self made man... thing.
"You know what? Being a non sentient pile of rocks is cringe"
-Earthshaker, probably
this is how we all came to be, if you think far back enough, and remember what it was like to decide to be born
@@autumnwitchmaple yeah uhhh no.
A) I defintely wasn't a pile of rocks with no sentience that paradoxically gained sentience and then became a sentient pile of literal rocks that wished to be in bear form.
And B) I really don't need or care for you forcing your beliefs on me. Believe what you want, but do so yourself. The vast majority of all global conflicts in human history is because people like to tell others their personal beliefs with no respect or forethought for the other persons. And I'd personally prefer we have less reasons to for violence. Aka I don't care for or want to hear about anyone's man made religions and beliefs that were used solely as tools for war and controlling the masses
Actually, conflict in human history is motivated by resources, and blamed on faith. The leaders do not often believe the shit they are peddling, they just use that to sell the wars to the masses. It's unfortunate how much faith has been used as a tool to destroy mankind and our history. But you're throwing out a lot of babies with the bathwater if you disregard any spiritual experience any human has ever had. It's like, a whole thing we do. But yeah, find your own truth, don't listen to mine. Just wanted to share somethin I thought was cool lmao
Honestly, the first big buff Shaker got was just Blink Dagger no longer requiring mana. Sometimes he'd have to get arcane boots just to be able to afford blink + spells, which only further increased his net worth requirements. When Blink's mana cost was removed, he could just be brown boots, wand, and go Blink.
I would say adding Arcane Boots to the game... Arcane Ring was fine, but Arcane Boots are soooo much better.
ES, Magnus, Axe, Leviathan and other strenght heroes with low int really got benefited from it. You even needed arcane boots or int items to have enough mana to cast the spells
As Synderen once said, a huge part of ES being so good is having an instant stun helps.
And a stun that can catch from afar, from fog, makes it so that peeps don't feel safe anytime he's unseen.
Also the ever present threat of enchant totem damage does make him quite scary and decently viable as a core, too!
the legend of the 6 million dollar echo slam
Echo slam jama
Easiest Money of my life
i love the swimming in money animation when you display the money that es won
I guess I knew that the EG TI5 Echo Slam was the source of good sound clips, but I hadn't realized it had been clipped and used for memes in two different languages. I was expecting to hear "IT'S A DISASTER!", but the "ay ay ay ay" clip was just as fun.
Well tobi got cancelled for being a rapist so makes sense that the clip doesn't get used
@Baumi You used my play with Rubick in intro. I'm Honored beyond words. THANK YOU
I feel like Earthshaker is just the epitome of a DotA hero. When you want to describe what DotA heros are like, you point to Earthshaker (and also probably Invoker)
I can't think of many DotA heros that are as iconic as ES. Even when looking at DotA 1 highlights, a DotA 2 player who has never seen DotA 1 (even a casual one) will immediately be able to recognize ES from his massive fissure animation.
Pudge is the most iconic Dota hero.
@@tylerpeters2820 honestly forgot about him, but yeah he's another one. I'd say those 3 are the pinnacle. The hook, the fissure, and spellbook.
Great video🎉😊
@@jakehr3 Pudge, Earthshaker, Invoker, and Shadow Fiend are pretty iconic. Oh, and Techies too for the wrong reasons.
Not me rewatching the iconic 45 second 3 times
10 k panalo ko times 3 30 k, easiest money of my life! They cannot say they betted on who would win, but really catchy context wise hahahhaha.
This is one of your best videos yet. but PLEASE highlight the hero when you show a clip i have to spend most of the clip finding the hero first then rewatch the fight. just a quick circle or arrow on the hero and maybe explaining what the hero is doing and why. like do battle breakdowns.
"There may be many earths, but there's only one Earthshaker."
Not according to dota lore, since every match is cannon lore meaning there’s billions of versions of him
@@Clanzzy69666 It's an in-game response from Earthshaker
for me earthshaker is the defining hero of competitive dota. what a design, even more than a decade later all of his spells do the same things
For me, one of the best thing about Echo Slam is its sound effect. The moment it happened, everyone's focus just peaked, and it also sounds so badass.
Can you make a film about antimage? He seems to have a lot of play in early tournaments but lost his ambition after some time
I'm so happy for every one of these vids, I hope you can keep making them but whatever you decide they're always going to be documentaries I'll return to again and again ❤
Baumi!! I follow u for a long time but didn't knew this channel yet! LOVED it. Great job! Keep it going.
Hey! Just wanted to say i really enjoy these, love this format. Makes the game alot more interesting for a guy who's played here and there. Makes me play again after seeing their stories.
Especially IO, hated that little pos, didn't know bout the crazy carry build out of nowhere XD changed my mind. Thanks! Keep em comin :D
Man what a great video, I got chills rewatching those echo slams in TI 2015.
Also thank you for that tangent showing those iconic voice lines, I had no idea that it all came from a single game and within 45 seconds apart. "Easiest money of my life!"
Leaving a comment for the algorithm. Great video as always! Been anticipating an analysis of es!
Ive been waiting for months for a new video. Love this channel so much.
Thanks so much for making these videos. They are pretty interesting
damn bro we need to get you more subs
all dota players should watch these
These are like the best content I get on dota in my feed, love the lore section!!
I've been binging these videos all week, they are wonderful
Would love to see Stories of Arc Warden!
You are killing these vids, I love watching them. Keep up the great work!
I’ve literally never played dota in my life and am generally not a fan of this style of games, but I’ve watched about 4 of these videos all the way through just today! These videos are so well made and I absolutely love them! Keep up the great work :D
One thing I've noticed as I've watched a lot of these videos lately is how present Dark Seer is at so many TIs. It seems in nearly every patch he's woefully unpopular in most pub games at most brackets, despite how much value the pros find with him. I'd love to see his history.
Was really looking forward to this video, ES is one of my favourite characters in dota.
It's a shame what happened to Earthshaker with the game wide changes to stun duration and he will forever serve as a perfect example as to why game devs need to be careful when they adjust mechanics game wide.
As a hero whose entire kit revolves around stunning the enemy team, by effectively halving stun durations across the board (including his), that all but deleted this heroes competitiveness (especially as a support). The way he is being played currently revolves around totem and the big hits or echo slam into large groups of enemies, hence why core shaker is still playable.
I've seen this so many times across different games, where the theme of a specific character/class/archetype/whatever is 1 thing (mobility, disables, damage, support, etc.) and then that thing either gets nerfed via a game wide mechanical change or is just given to everyone else and that character/class/archetype just falls off completely because now its 1 unique thing is gone or everyone has it, but everyone also still has their own thing on top of that characters niche.
Hopefully Valve can give ES his niche back in the future. It's a shame to see such an iconic character just fall off in that way.
awesome series, thanks for well made content
Love this content. I haven’t played dota 2 since I was a kid but i have always enjoyed watching it
Can we also acknowledge that ES has amazing voice lines by the great John Patrick Lowrie!
Great video on one of my all time favorite heroes!
One thing I also remember why ES offlane and carry was viable at some point was Totem’s “true strike” ability. Many agility heroes buy butterfly which gives them evasion and made them hard to hit. To counter that heroes were required to purchase MKB. ES didn’t need that and was able to spend that money elsewhere.
Your videos are great. Please keep them coming
I haven't played Dota properly in over a decade, but this is still my favourite channel on TH-cam. Excellent work!
Really liked visualizing earthshakers success with total winnings, and it even makes for an enticing thing to put in the title
Love the videos hope they get the attention they deserve
I’ve nearly even played dota and don’t really know how to but I still really enjoy these videos
Shotout to Neichus for creating this amazing hero. Lots of his designs were so good they remained unchanged and became some of Dota most iconic things.
46:35 bald
I love your videos. You guys are killing it.
Its insane the amount of effort that he put in this channel videos. Thank you Baumi
Wait SFs running animation used to just look like a guy jogging slowly? I've never seen that before
He had no swag
A EarthShaker(my main hero for 14 years of playing DoTA) Video with an Honkai Star Rail ad?? 😍 It's still the intro and I already love this Video 😍😍😍
Nice to hear a story about a good hero after two months
This wonderful series definitely has to come to Elder Titan at some point! The most slept on Support in dota history
Could you make a series summarizing each TI in a similar style as this video?
Baumi, this is honestly one of the highest quality gaming series on the platform, I'm sure TH-cam recompenses unfairly given how much work clearly goes into each video. Commenting for the algorithm and for the support ❤
Love your History Videos man
ES was one of my favorite heroes in HoN. Gotta love the wombo combo.
Earthshaker is the first hero i ever played with in dota allstars back on wc3 days and i'm still happy playing him 16 years later with barely any changes ever to his toolkit
1:12:35 aww, ill be sad when it's over but for now I'm still just loving it
I love these videos... and i mainly play DotA when my buddies force me too xD
Great video as always
ECHO SLAMMA JAMMA! Is my favorite voice line of all time.
What conclusion by the end of a year my friend? When Enigma/Magnus? Everybody has their fabourine heros...
Nobody will allow you to conclude anything before youre done your epic job my friend 😂
Omg the comment in minute 15:56 I remember that, it was sooooo hard to get anything hahahha you just waited to die the most useful way lmao
I think it's a really cute and meaningful touch that you use contemporary skins for the era when discussing a hero's different patches and changes.
Pls make an video about invoker really wanna hear his story story from you ❤
i'm happy you got a big sponsor!
Thx for Vilat commentary for 2015 ti
Sad to hear the channel has a specific end point, but I am enjoying the ride a lot
I just adore how every time a clip is shown, the casters speak a different language
Loving the video!
All of these videos are also perfect.
I want to see a video on Phantom Lancer!
"It's a Distatah!" from TI 15 will haunt me forever.
I feel so sad that those moments highlighted were Tobi's time to shine.
The voice of dota
The fact he never got reworked or changed, aside from getting a shard and scepter, beyond number changes is really interesting. Just from inception he was solid
A hero never reworked in dota history ??? This can't be true !!!!
What a hero ! So fun to watch ! always waiting for big echo slam in bif fights.
I want to see a Tinker vid with this high quality so badly 😢
I love putting these on while I draw.
I am really surprised that you used a Vietnamese caster’s casting for the TI7 final. Shout out to 23creativevn
Earthshaker deserves respect! Nice vídeo
Echo slama jaaaamaaaa !!
Easiest money of my life
oy oy oy oy
excited for Naga Siren! I also think she is the GOAT
as someone who has always been a support player early DoTa hurt a lot as you where often just cut from a large part of the game the Items
I like the new way of calculating TI impact for a hero. Perhaps you could pin a comment to old videos for what their impact would be by this metric?
Shaker will always be one of my favourites, to watch or play!
Cheers again for this series Baumi, really makes me appreciate the level of work that goes into these events (and succintly covering how far things have come)
Thanks for vids❤
and forget the twin dunk meta when ur teammate pick morpling and u pick shaker that was some good meme and good meta right there
Here we go baby!!! It's the EARTHSHAKER at last!!!!
Some days youre an earthshaker, some days youre a ground wiggler, really makes you think
Awesome video as always. PLease PLease do INVOKER next pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
in T6 earthshaker just wasnt that popular anymore as you said batraider and mirana out pick him so good the he is forgotten not just in pro scene but in PUB as well not to mention many hero that previously bad getting some really good buff like alchemist and player kind like to try that out so ES was forgotten
Just commenting to help the algorithm. Great video!
Im suprised you didn't include the base defense with jerax killing the enemy terrorblade
32:16 sad that they couldn't use one of the most iconic voice lines in DOTA 2's history
windranger and enigma too dont end this series so fast 😭
I really hope you make an invoker one aswell.
Nooooo. I saw my self old waiting for the Primal Beast video to be released.
Would love jakiro video
Great video, just during parts of gameplay footage not having English casters felt weird - especially during such key moments in dota such as the $6MM dollar echoslam.

He's got to be the best/most consistent hero of the entire game - maybe excepting Io.
In my mind Earthshaker and Pudge are the two most iconic heroes of Dota 2
bold of you to imply Smolder was highly anticipated
shadow fiend, antimage, invoker, crystal maiden needs stories
Earthdunker.
"Hey you, whatcha gonna do?"
DOTA 2
Icon: Pudge
MAsterpiece: Invoker
Best Design: Earth Shaker
People's champ: Sniper
Looks like Baumi needs to start picking Earthshaker to keep the lights on
Earthshaker is the most Dota 2 hero of all time. "What character encapsulates Dota 2 the most?"
In my opinion, Earthshaker
I could never figure out how to play naga siren. I know her ult made her basically ungankable, but I felt she was weak outside of that being a melee carry with no stun or insane tankability/mobiity like anti mage.
Well, apart from her ulti, she has powerfull long-lasting illusions with a insane phaseshift on cast. Basically a buffed manta. This and her pasive wich splashes on attacks even with illusions makes her deal insane damage and enables her to farm incredibly fast. She also scales amazingly well on agility. And while her net might not seem as much it has enough range and last enough to enable her kill any foe. Basically she scales fast and amazingly well as an attack based carry
