How this matchup plays

Trying to burst down a Dawnbreaker as Earthshaker feels unproductive. His sequence of stuns relies on finding a fragile target, but she is naturally durable and her items often amplify that. Even if he lands a perfect Fissure, she can frequently survive the follow-up and turn the fight with Starbreaker. Her ability to reposition with Celestial Hammer or leave the fight entirely with Solar Guardian means a lot of Earthshaker's key cooldowns can end up being wasted trying to lock her down.

Throughout the game, this forces Earthshaker to change his priorities. He can’t afford to focus the enemy front-liner, which is a real problem when Dawnbreaker is disrupting his backline. He must instead try to find her squishier allies, but even then, Dawnbreaker's global ultimate can be used to save the target he initiates on. This allows Dawnbreaker to play aggressively and create space, knowing the enemy’s primary initiator has a difficult time dealing with her directly.
