Strategy
You can place Observer Wards on the map quickly, especially on mid, by using Rolling Boulder.
First three abilities can destroy trees which can be useful against certain heroes.
The further the opponents are from their tower, the deadlier you are. You can potentially roll-kick an opponent under your tower.
Consider hijacking the second wave to establish creep equilibrium closer to your tower.
Ideally roll from the fog when an opponent is somewhat stationary, for example when going for last hit.
Secure active runes and use portals to gank other lanes.
Make use of existing stones in the fights as much as you can. Avoid over using Stone Remnants.
Earth Spirit is great at setting up kills. Communicate with your teammates as you will need follow up damage.
Pick up Aghanims Shard with max Geomagnetic Grip to save allied heroes.
Counter Strategy
Bring an Observer Ward to keep an eye on Earth Spirit's aggressive movements and dodge Rolling Boulders.
Be careful when playing at opponent's tower as Earth Spirit can roll and kick you under the tower.
Earth Spirit tends to roam a lot. Keep track of his movements and have teleport ready.
Magic resistance and spell imunity items are great against Earth Spirit's magical damage and disables.
Items that provide dispels are great at removing Geomagnetic Grip silence and Magnetize.
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 crafstmen 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.
