How Clinkz and Earth Spirit perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Clinkz and Earth Spirit win 50.22% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 3,132 matches.
Thinking about a gank squad with Earth Spirit and Clinkz makes sense on paper. The idea is that Earth Spirit's long-range stuns and silences give Clinkz a perfect window to appear and melt a target with Burning Barrage. The reality is that the setup can be less clean than you'd hope. Earth Spirit's control often involves pushing or pulling the enemy, which can disrupt Clinkz's positioning and aim. If the initial burst doesn't secure the kill, neither hero has a way to protect the other. Clinkz remains a glass cannon, and Earth Spirit offers no defensive support, so a failed gank can easily turn into a death for both.
