Thanks for the guide.

Thank you for the guide, I honestly did not notice any sort of day/night thing before but now that I know there is a big difference and that certain champs get benefits, I will have to keep a lookout when the game is released.

Nice guide. Wish there was some stuff like this that was easy to find when I started playing DotA. There are a lot of guides on playdota.com but are not as concise and easy to understand as this.

Why do you keep dangling the keys in front of us like so many carrots!?

Awesome writeup, the strangest part of all this is how similar DOTA/DOTA2/HoN/LoL are in these respects (towers, barracks, minion waves, farming, etc.), but just from tweaking numbers in minion HP, damage, attack speed, they feel like completely different games, rather than offshoots of each other.

Now, back to checking my email every four hours.
Nevermind.

Wow, this game is a lot more like League of Legends than I thought. Wish I could pull creeps to my minions in LoL, would make jungling so much easier. :D Great post, and posting here for a chance at a beta key if you don't mind. ^^; Ty!
