Feels like a desperation move to get HoN more attention before the impending Dota 2, LoL would be a better choice I think.

Sorry, but I really don't like their business model. They force the players to play an over two months long group stage to see who qualifies for the grand finals (compare IPL Origin). And they won't even reimburse the people who attend the finals 100% for their flights plus lodging, even though they apparently have the money to do so.

HON is basically dead
I'm not hating on HON but the community is just too small to be viable


Well the community can always grow again. Maybe some SC2 fans will get into it, maybe some of the older fans/players will get back into it now that there is a competitive scene starting up again.

I'm not saying it's going to happen, but it looks like that is what S2 is betting on by paying NASL to do this.

Maybe they also tried to get MLG to pick them up but lost out to LoL.

I wish they fixed their problems with SC2 first. This seems just overly ambitious.

Meh doubt S2 can stay in the battle of money throwing as well as Riot and Valve, the game is soon to be replaced by Dota2 anywhere it exists, because valve can throw 3/5mil on a tournament (I know prize pool was 1.7 only but they had to rent space at gamescom and casters and all so I am giving them an other 2mill to do all that), while Riot is throwing 5mil on season 2.


Oh well Dota2 and LoL are good for eSports and maybe that makes blizzard sponsor some crazy prize pool for SC2, considering they were the ones to give us the 100k prize pools in GSL when it Started, plus I enjoy watching Dota2 and LoL just as much as SC2.
this mah s#$%$

It's S2, and yes I think they are paying for this themselves, rather than NASL splitting their budget.

At least that's what I get when they say promotional title.

HoN's not a good investment (at least not long term)... it's dead once dota2 comes out.

Why would you add HoN with DotA 2 around the corner and LoL dominating the casual part of the market? Makes no sense long term, so S2 must have paid them.

Maybe S2 is planning on releasing an expansion for HoN (or something of the sort) and they are using this as a platform to promote it?

wow, seems like a strange move to add the weakess MOBA games in term of fanbase, viewerships and e-sport scene

i didn't see this comming at all, LoL sure, Dota 2 yeah makes sense, but HoN?

and i am NOT disregarding the game(play)itself in anyway btw

I'm all for expanding Esports and stuff, and the NASL team has shown huge development during and after the last season. But I think adding HoN is a step into the wrong direction. Be it the game's recent development, LoL's amazing stride or the horrible cesspool that is HoN's community - community-wise, there would have been much better options.

Of course I can only make assumptions - they probably have valid reasons for chosing HoN over LoL or over waiting for DotA2. So if it's a sound business decision, good for them! And if it helps NASL overall and thus the SC2 division as well, the better it is.
