How Earth Spirit and Storm Spirit perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41f, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Earth Spirit and Storm Spirit win 43.98% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 8,413 matches.
Setting up a kill for Storm Spirit can be surprisingly awkward with an Earth Spirit. Storm wants to get on top of a hero and stay there, but Earth Spirit's Boulder Smash often pushes that target to safety, completely ruining the gank. While a well-timed Roll or Silence can be effective, the risk of a misplaced displacement is always there. Both heroes also want to be the primary initiator from the early game, leading to confused engagements where they aren't playing off each other's strengths. Instead of a clean setup, their kits can feel like they're actively fighting each other during crucial pickoff attempts.
