Nice guide,
Maybe you've just adding some experiment that people cant accept.
But for me it so good.

I would add Tiny as Super friend with his Toss
But he'll be a Super foe with his Craggy Exterior
Anyway, Earthshaker is so friendly, all his skill can be combined with so many heroes.

Yes, i agree that Earthshaker is one of the best initiator. But it'll be enjoy if there's another initiator in a team, cause he is a good sweeper.
1. Being initiator if target is clustered most.
2. Being sweeper to cut enemies skill.
3. Battle Fury <<- this item is freaking HOT if you like spicy food. Faceless Void is on holiday, now it yours. XD

Conclusion for me:
Earthshaker will be perfect (or the reason you'll trying to play him) if other team playing pusher-heroes, duplicator, and something like Nature's Call or Spawn Spiderlings. Cause it'll make him like he wearing black formal suit with a gold necktie and a sunglasses, he looks more fcuking cool than usual.

Correct me if im wrong. Thanks to Mastadoom for the nice guide. :)

It's downvoted because it's a terrible guide. Telling a support to go full stats/regen instead of courier/wards is an awful idea and makes supports even less useful.

Encouraging a carry to buy double Daedalus is equally stupid and a waste of 5k+ gold that could be used for fantastic other utility items like Desolator or Butterfly.


i appricate your comment, thank you for your input. I did mention the support items, but for ES he need that blink to come online fast, and becuase you can't farm the jungle like other supports, you have to make your gold count. Also, getting the double Daedalus is becuase the carry ES build is very much like building kunnka, you want your one hit to count, so even though the crits cant stack, the chance to crit goes up.

Because Earthshaker isn't a hard support, e.g. one that needs no items to be effective. He needs something for his mana regeneration, He needs something to help him initiate, He needs something to give him presence lategame when Heroes are much more durable and BKBs are flying.

Hi Mastadoom!
Thanks for the guide, first time playing earth shaker and this really helps by A LOT (I still suck though lol).
Same here, also don't get why this is downvoted.
Keep on making good guides! +1 from me :D

+1 Good guide, thanks for the work :)

I'd like to add that I like the Force Staff sometimes over the Blink Dagger. It's half the distance, but it comes with some nice stats. And, taking damage doesn't block it's use. Great for escapes.

Thanks, I was kind of sad this got down-voted because ES is probably one of my best supports, I mean i was considering not even updating this with the 6.81 (I did).

Odd..this guide seems to have been downvoted. It's a nice guide, well formatted and informative, +1 8{)

I would add Animal Courier, Flying Courier, Observer Wards and Sentry Wards to the Items thoguh, even if you need to Farm, you're still a Support in most scenarios. I know you mention them, but it's always nice to see them in the build.


Ya, i mentioned them as pickups if no one else was going to get them, but i guess i should add them.
Also thanks for the comment, i don't like this getting downvoted and not knowing why so i can improve it.
