Spamming Earth Spirit (what should I learn)

Dotabuff

TLDR: Help me out! What can i work on, improve, in general, or specific for earth spirit or the roles of offlane / roaming support. Games about 2k (party) and 2.5k (solo) mmr. Hope for help with 1 or 2 games from each replier.

Hi =) I would like som repost and thoughts on my latest games as Earth Spirit (my fav. hero). If you have any tips for the hero specific or in gameplay in general it would be AWSOME to get your opinions. I´m currently at pitiful 2.5k mmr, lost almost 400 in just 2 weeks ago, lost motivation, now going back up and started working again. I post 4 games, and those who take time to watch --> I´m truely grateful. Also, if you´r new and wanna learn Earth Spirit yourself, i can atleast give out some basics, and some of my own plays (got currently 265 games on the hero, most games from the last 9 months / 14 total months). I suggest that those who want to help me (or learn themself, pick 1 or 2 games to read up on, then watch it and give me some reply. I guess 4 is too much for a "normal person" xD, but would love to if you can make 1 or 2, together I then get some decent opinions, hopefully for every game.

Game 1: http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/1974821008 Win A stompy game, actually quite funny, about 2k mmr, party with 5, ranked all pick. Roaming Earth Spirit. Self thoughts: Created alot of space by interupting nature´s prophet, leading to rotations of him to mid, cm to help np jungle and so on, our sf said he only farmed, and felt useless.

Game 2: http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/1974910748 Loss Weird game, felt like I was stomping hard from around lvl 6 and onward. Got to a level where the enemy ta and i believe slardar, shaker and riki aswell respected me for playing earth spirit decently (I was mocking them at the start to gain psychological advantage xD). Self thoughts: What could have gone wrong was the item build, the game felt stompy,and i chose armlet (successful mid game toggling, wont spoil more), then opt for a dagon 2, BIG MISTAKE. Our ember had a really bad day in general (the Sf from game 1), and he failed to carry later on (not saying his fault entirerly, could also be mine for not continuing to snowball harder, and dying unnecessary if so), slow bf and crystalis by 28 mins i believe. Went to an extent where my lead fell, and the enemy team started dominating. I dont remember quite well from this mid game, but I may reccon feeding by unneccessary deaths, not sure (havent rewatched this one myself yet).

Game 3: http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/1975020132 Loss Scared before game started by invoker 3.3k solo mmr and 3.8k party mmr, lol. Ended up working quite well, till Sf got his shadow blade, from then on we where loosing more and more, till we couldn´t turn. Again, slark should have bought some health potions early on after he was harrased, dunno why disruptor left lane, we also had communication, so this was quite poor played by team in general (i was thinking of helping him here with regen, but had to secure myself abit, maybe a mistake here idk). Self thoughts: Good start, poorly played trilane where disruptor leaving lane, had some pretty good saves, and one where i messed up later on at the end xD.

Game 4: http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/1975115663 Win Very interesting game, Sven called mid, was going to pick meepo till ember was picked, ended up with sven. I therefore suggested me mid, wr offlane, sven carry, but I went offlane, sven was very sure he was going mid. Sven got a good start, and i got decent exp / some farm. Did quite decent when i reached lvl 6 about that time. Early game i tp in to fight bot, saved cm while she ulted, but i think i missplaced her here abit, but i think it was worth it in the end. Qop got away, thought urn charge was enough, but she probably bottled rune. Late game was very interesting. Was VERY suprised they didnt attempt rosh earlier, and was one time i said in voice, that we should prob ward rosh, and it was too late. Sven was very positive mid game to late in voice chat, and commended me for the game, said I saved us the game....Im not sure about this, i know i played well, but did probably some mistakes aswell, also, helping him with those kills and setup in the fights won us the game in total.

Thanks in advance! =)

Sry if the English is abit weird, not mother tongue.

P.S. If any1 is interested in learning earth spirit from the basics, or abit more advanced, or are willing to coach me abit for free (the dream) I would be so happy. My steam profile if you want to add: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198148546142/
