| Hero Discussion of the Day: Kaolin, the Earth Spirit (June 12th, 2018) Posted: 12 Jun 2018 01:57 PM PDT Kaolin, the Earth SpiritEarth Spirit is a melee strength hero with great utility, possessing a wide array of disables in all of his basic abilities. Unlike most heroes, his abilities revolve around an innate ability, Stone Remnant, which allows him to place statues that can be used to augment his abilities. Using his abilities in tandem with these remnants, Earth Spirit can stun enemies with Boulder Smash, slow them and initiate with Rolling Boulder, and silence them with Geomagnetic Grip. His ultimate, Magnetize, inflicts nearby enemies with a damage over time debuff, and allows him to spread the slow and silence from his abilities to other nearby enemies while refreshing the debuff duration by using his Stone Remnants, stopping entire groups of enemies in their tracks. With good timing and skill he can initiate fights from a distance, and given the right circumstances can deal a surprising amount of damage to both single and multiple targets, all the while disrupting enemy positioning allowing for easy kills. A useful ally and a dangerous enemy, the Earth Spirit's versatility and flexibility make him an ideal hero in almost any lineup or lane. Lore Deep amid the Upland crags and cliffs there runs a seam of sacred jade long foresworn by highland miners. From this rare material, the likeness of the great general Kaolin was carved and buried at the head of a stone funerary army ten thousand strong--a force of soldiers and holy men, jesters and acrobats, carved by craftsmen and entombed for millennia in the dark embrace of the Earth. What the craftsmen had not known was that within the strange seam of jade flowed the spirit of the Earth itself--an elemental force at one with the planet. When the force within the carved jade found itself cut off from the life's blood of the world, it gathered its strength over the course of a thousand years and dug itself free and into the light. Now the great Kaolin Earth Spirit strides the Upland roads, fighting for the spirit of the Earth; and in times of need calls forth remnants of his buried army still locked in the loving embrace of the soil. Roles: Nuker, Escape, Disabler, Initiator, DurableStrength: 21 + 3.2 Agility: 17 + 1.5 Intelligence: 18 + 2.1
Damage: 46-56 Armor: 2.72 Movement Speed: 285 Attack Range: 150 Missile Speed: Instant Base Attack Time: 1.7 Sight Range: 1800 (Day) / 800 (Night) Turn Rate: 0.6 SpellsStone Remnant Innate Ability Call a Stone Remnant to the target location. Stone Remnants have no vision and are invulnerable, and can be used with Earth Spirit's abilities. Calling a Stone Remnant consumes a charge, which recharge over time.
Earth Spirit calls forth a remnant of his stone army, long buried with him in the dark embrace of the Earth.
Boulder Smash Earth Spirit smashes the target enemy or ally, sending them in the direction he is facing. If Earth Spirit targets an area, he will smash the nearest Stone Remnant in a 200 radius. The travelling unit or Remnant damages all enemy units it hits. If an enemy is hit by a Stone Remnant, they are also stunned. Stone Remnants travel further than other units.
It is with the power of a mountain that Earth Spirit strikes his enemies.
Rolling Boulder Earth Spirit gathers himself into a boulder and, after a 0.6s delay, rolls towards the target location, damaging enemy units. He will stop if he collides with a hero or is stunned. If he rolls over a Stone Remnant, he will travel further and faster, and enemies hit by the boulder will have their movement speed slowed.
Calling upon his connection to the land, the Earth Spirit draws loose stone to him, which forms a protective ball that he can use to roll short distances.
Geomagnetic Grip Earth Spirit pulls the target Stone Remnant. Enemies struck by the gripped target will be silenced, and take damage if the gripped target is a Stone Remnant.
Like calls to like. Even the minerals found in the blood and bones of living beings are not immune to the call of the Earth Spirit.
Magnetize Ultimate Magnetizes units in a small nearby area, causing them to take damage for a short duration. Magnetized heroes cause nearby Stone Remnants to explode, destroying the remnant and refreshing Magnetize's duration on all nearby enemies. This process can repeat multiple times. If an enemy hero is affected by silence or slows as a result of Geomagnetic Grip or Rolling Boulder, all magnetized heroes share the effects.
Enchant Remnant Aghanim's Scepter Upgrade Earth Spirit temporarily enchants a hero, granting them the properties of a Stone Remnant. After 3 seconds the remnant shatters, releasing the hero and damaging nearby enemies.
Kaolin uses the elemental power of the Earth to temporarily petrify living beings, so that they might be conscripted into his stone funerary army. Talent Tree

| Posted: 13 Jun 2018 09:21 AM PDT Ive watched the show match between OG and FEU. From the start I knew that OG was tripping and just toying with their opponents, but after all those fun moments for OG lead to a loss for them from college students who are obviously trying their best to win against a high caliber team. AS A FILIPINO AND A DOTA PLAYER, I WANT TO APOLOGIZE TO THE WHOLE DOTA COMMUNITY, ESPECIALLY TO OG, for the way they acted when they knew they've won, trashtalking and all that stuff. They shouldve just thanked you guys for the opportunity, but instead they acted high and mighty for beating a high tier team.

| Posted: 13 Jun 2018 04:34 AM PDT Today was an average day. Made lunch, left my wife at work and came back to play some dota. Thought it would be a regular game when suddenly a known face shows up on the enemy team, it was Sumail. I instantly told him that I was a satisfied punk. The game was great, we were winning but suddenly the King attacked and conquer the game like nobody else has done. As we were losing, I wrote in all chat: "rtz is better mid" and then we lost. Overall, just an average day.
