    pick earth spirit, wait till everyone picks their heroes, then repick into what you want.

    ensures a good game

      the moment you pick es people on the other team are going to pick slark, brood, alchemist and legion commander
      probably still better than playing against es though

        legion and brood counters es now? is ur rating 2k?

        Sōu ka

          huh you actually think theres a counter to es lmao
          whats your rating 200?
          i guess it works for you when all you do is have someone on your team pick that hero every game

            4.3kl actaully how about you

            vivivvivivi

              the counter to es is to have someone pick and play es you dumb fuck, how fucking dense can someone be
              my rating is 5k

                like nothing you say has any relevance or follows any kind of logic

                  whatever flows in your boat, have fun picking "brood" or "legion" to a hero like es lmao

                    i dont even think these heroes are particularly good against es and i never claimed they are
                    they are just borderline broken heroes, not to the same degree as es is, not even close, that are picked all the time and they are all very annoying to deal with, especially in solo ranked games

                    waku waku

                      what about lich

                      vivivvivivi

                        they picked brood to counter es, they were a 5 man stack as well. i bought a gem after 2 minutes in the game and suddenly game was in my favor even tho he has brood #1 in his top 3, he failed to play his most played hero.

                        what a borderline broken hero that got countered by early gem and how the fuck is legion broken, hes the shittiest and most useless fucking hero ever who starts to feed after blink or lothar.

                        on a serious note, heroes like doom (if played properly), roaming alch support (medallion acid spray stun) and skywrath completely ruins es potential

                            I have lost one game since calibration, (1 out of 6), and lost 3 during. Win rate for ranked games now standing at 12 out of 16. That's 75%. That makes me pro. I am a pro level player. No. I am. Honest.

                            Only paying support my solo rank has gone up from 3024 to 3142.

                            4K here I come...

                              I have a good winrate against ES with my weaver, lel.

                                lol weaver is food for ES.

                                doom,skywrath both very anoying.

                                  ES counters slark in so many ways.
