@@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.
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
@@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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!"
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 ❤
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 😂
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
Baumi, this is honestly one of the highest quality gaming series on the platform, I'm sure RUclips recompenses unfairly given how much work clearly goes into each video. Commenting for the algorithm and for the support ❤
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
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)
The next video announcement is more vicious than any fissure. "The Best Dota Hero of All Time" followed by ....... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Teh pain.
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.

I would say adding Arcane Boots to the game... Arcane Ring was fine, but Arcane Boots are soooo much better.

As Synderen once said, a huge part of ES being so good is having an instant stun helps.

Also the ever present threat of enchant totem damage does make him quite scary and decently viable as a core, too!
at 32:20 all language barriers were broken and everyone knew what was said..... peak echo slam moment.
great video. keep it up
the legend of the 6 million dollar echo slam
Echo slam jama
Easiest Money of my life
3 million dollar echo slam; 3 million dollar ice blast
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
@@Exy- this is ridiculous. poor west world
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.
i love the swimming in money animation when you display the money that es won
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.
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.
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.
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
"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
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!"
@Baumi You used my play with Rubick in intro. I'm Honored beyond words. THANK YOU
That was fucking disgusting. Good job 👍

Ive been waiting for months for a new video. Love this channel so much.
damn bro we need to get you more subs
all dota players should watch these
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
Nice to hear a story about a good hero after two months
I haven't played Dota properly in over a decade, but this is still my favourite channel on RUclips. Excellent work!
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.
32:16 sad that they couldn't use one of the most iconic voice lines in DOTA 2's history
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.
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
Leaving a comment for the algorithm. Great video as always! Been anticipating an analysis of es!
You are killing these vids, I love watching them. Keep up the great work!
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.
Really liked visualizing earthshakers success with total winnings, and it even makes for an enticing thing to put in the title
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!

Baumi!! I follow u for a long time but didn't knew this channel yet! LOVED it. Great job! Keep it going.
Wait SFs running animation used to just look like a guy jogging slowly? I've never seen that before
He had no swag

Nobody will allow you to conclude anything before youre done your epic job my friend 😂
These are like the best content I get on dota in my feed, love the lore section!!
I just adore how every time a clip is shown, the casters speak a different language
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
This wonderful series definitely has to come to Elder Titan at some point! The most slept on Support in dota history
Its insane the amount of effort that he put in this channel videos. Thank you Baumi
I've been binging these videos all week, they are wonderful
Would love to see Stories of Arc Warden!
ECHO SLAMMA JAMMA! Is my favorite voice line of all time.
the joy in these caster's voices really makes me happy
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 😍😍😍
Love this content. I haven’t played dota 2 since I was a kid but i have always enjoyed watching it
I’ve nearly even played dota and don’t really know how to but I still really enjoy these videos
Some days youre an earthshaker, some days youre a ground wiggler, really makes you think
Baumi, this is honestly one of the highest quality gaming series on the platform, I'm sure RUclips recompenses unfairly given how much work clearly goes into each video. Commenting for the algorithm and for the support ❤
Love the videos hope they get the attention they deserve
1:12:35 aww, ill be sad when it's over but for now I'm still just loving it
ES was one of my favorite heroes in HoN. Gotta love the wombo combo.
Thanks!
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
"It's a Distatah!" from TI 15 will haunt me forever.
Thanks so much for making these videos. They are pretty interesting
Earthdunker.
"Hey you, whatcha gonna do?"
I want to see a Tinker vid with this high quality so badly 😢
Your videos are great. Please keep them coming
Sad to hear the channel has a specific end point, but I am enjoying the ride a lot
I love your videos. You guys are killing it.
Could you make a series summarizing each TI in a similar style as this video?
I love these videos... and i mainly play DotA when my buddies force me too xD
awesome series, thanks for well made content
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?
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.
bold of you to imply Smolder was highly anticipated
Looks like Baumi needs to start picking Earthshaker to keep the lights on
it saddens me that the project will come to an end.... feels wrong
the earth split stun at the beginning is traumatizing 😭
I am really surprised that you used a Vietnamese caster’s casting for the TI7 final. Shout out to 23creativevn
Im loving these videos keep it up ❤
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
I feel so sad that those moments highlighted were Tobi's time to shine.
The voice of dota
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
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)
I love putting these on while I draw.
shadow fiend, antimage, invoker, crystal maiden needs stories
If earthshaker dangerous then why cute puppy ears 😢
windranger and enigma too dont end this series so fast 😭
Another great vid. I just wish you used replays with english commentary instead of russian to keep the language constant.
Sometimes it's really hard to find old clips and the only ones that exist aren't in English.
There may be many earths, but there's only one Earthshaker!
The next video announcement is more vicious than any fissure. "The Best Dota Hero of All Time" followed by ....... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Teh pain.
"Naga Siren"
>slowly raises fists
everytime I see ES in my game, I remember that 6M slam
Love your History Videos man
I want to see a video on Phantom Lancer!
i'm happy you got a big sponsor!
I usually associate stuns with Spirit Breaker originally but Earthshaker is just as good!
Pls make an video about invoker really wanna hear his story story from you ❤
46:35 bald
"A "nice" 69 percent winrate"
I see what you did there 21:55
All of these videos are also perfect.
Loving the video!
excited for Naga Siren! I also think she is the GOAT
26:59 that pronounciation of Qojqvas name really threw me off hahaha
The video: Earthshaker sounds like…
me: I’m going to stop you right there no he really doesn’t sound like those others to be honest.
Here we go baby!!! It's the EARTHSHAKER at last!!!!
Great video as always
At TI8, there is a narration mistake. It shows 49 picks and 29 bans, but your voice says 73 contested games instead of 78
