How Earthshaker and Riki perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Earthshaker and Riki win 52.38% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,029 matches.
Playing against this pair feels like there's no escape. Getting caught in Riki's Smoke Screen provides the perfect setup for Earthshaker to land an easy Fissure, blocking your path and stunning you. Riki isn't known for his own lockdown, so having a reliable stunner on his team makes his ganks much more lethal. While you're silenced and slowed, Earthshaker can chain his stuns, guaranteeing Riki has enough time to secure the kill. It's a simple but effective ganking partnership that gives them a consistent way to find pickoffs, especially against targets who would normally have an easy way out.
