Is HoN fucking up for anyone? Can no longer log in.
Crashed for me, finished my Matchmaking game then couldn't queue for another. Tried to relog and couldn't get back in.
On a side note Valk+Ramp is hilarious. Even if you're horrible at Valk like me, Ramp charges and stuns then ultis someone in place. Valk shoots off a 5 second arrow at them which always lands. Ends up being like a 10 second stunlock.

first rule of hon: if there's a problem don't log off :O
|
Seems to be working now :B
|
not for me
|
Login screen is taking years but it's working
|
Logon works, chat doesn't for me.
|
maybe its a sign i should get some sleep ;p
|
so i left hon like 3 months ago when it started doing strange things with matchmaking and replays, and its still not fixed lol ?

Anyways, finally gotten around to playing the new SB yesterday, I must say pubs did forget their anti-SB technology. The hero is very good for sure and I had the luxury of solo mid, but it's not broken. The team composition will determine if he's broken or not, I can imagine a few lineups where he would really create this punishing position a la the Broke Dagger era for the other team.

So does anyone know the modes of OMG/LoD nowadays? I miss abilitydraft 
A quick glance tells me its either random abilities or choose what you want from the heroes available (dependant on heropick mode)

also gives him fast possible short range stun now which he needs.

People are stupid, he's semi-useful now, but the pub mask of madness/charge every lone hero in sight strategy is stupid.
Just shadow that juicy looking hero from behind with a disable, and kill him over and over again when he charges.

And the new OP flavor of the week comes with the HoN update.
|
Anyone try out the new hero? I saw him in one game but the guy honestly didn't showcase much.
|
Anyone else follow testie's stream here?
It looks like his team are no longer part of SK Gaming but I can't find any info anywhere about this in any of the usual places. Could anyone please shed some light on the matter?
Also I'm looking forward to seeing which side of the S2 coin the new hero falls on, ridiculously OP or ridiculously bad.
|
well i played against new hero, player seemed to do ok, but the team was so so his silence is really strong, you use it on important caster early on and he can't do anything to help, also if you're lucky he can prevent PK with his wolves, my impression is that he's also strong solo ganker, but time will tell more don't think any of S2 released heroes were ridiculously bad, most of them super OP while some kinda balanced

SK's team blew up with Tralf leaving due to a bad match. They had trouble getting 5 online for matches and SK decided to drop them.
Part of the SK staff posted in the thread here.

Not sure if they're reforming or dropping hon. I like Testie anyway, looks like all the members might still be playing hon.
