It's..........BM in the same way some people consider backdooring to be BM. It's no longer against the rules, and most people accept it to be part of Dota, but at the same time people don't look kindly at it. | ||

it is depends on how smart you use it. Like even if you just block half of the creepwave in your long lane, it is already equally as good as a clock cog block at level 1, giving any long laner a HUGE boost to level 2 early on. The pulling mid meta was so broken that Valve had to hard fix the small pull and now you can do it easily again. All and all earthshaker is an extremely underrated pick simply because of a 'BM' image behind an existing in-game mechanic. When it comes to a final of a tournament with 1 mil $ on the line, i doubt BM would ever matter. | ||

And all the chests contains a lot of rares, and there are no common items in chests anymore.

I thought he meant as dodging a tower shot by phase shifting and instantly moving. The shot won't follow you, even if you are not currently "shifted". I don't remember it ever working diferently though. | ||
