55k users online, obviously many f2p users so this number is meaningless

1850+ queue, 20 minutes, go lower names. 1700 avg, 10 minute queue with USE only, restart with USW + USE, 20 minute queue, no games. Go lower names, 1600 avg, let's see if we can find a game.

Took 10 minutes to get the 1600 game going, but it took about 5 minutes for the stats to count after the game and now the chat serve is d/cing me. It took me 30+ seconds to connect to TMM and when we finally got into a game nobody in my group could connect to the server.

It seems as though S2 was not prepared for what such a large influx of players would do to their servers?

Just joined the clan, thanks to Grouty for the invite!

How would you recommend getting better at HoN? Is it just a matter of selecting a character you like and playing as many games as possible?

Well you will want to have played every hero at least once, it's the best way to familiarize yourself with their abilities/roles. Learn the items/heroes/hotkeys(that you can customize). If you're used to BW or SC2, paying attention to the mini-map should be fairly easy. Learn to harass and last hit/deny. There's really a lot, but there's also a lot of resources available to you. It's not the most fun or the most pleasant of learning experiences, but it can be very rewarding.

So since HoN went F2P, I finally decided to give it a try after sticking to dota for years and years... Do I just hop into the teamliquid channel?

It's nothing against the f2p players, it's about s2 and their questionable decision making.

Wow did they take that out? S2 ruining the game...

As for how to improve, play with better players and pick up on what they do. I would still be stuck in 1600 if I didn't start playing with Cats, Riki, Dev, Gucci, etc

I decided to try out HoN since it's f2p now and I got sick of the koreans in LoL. The game is fun except half of my games I face smurfs that completely destroy my team and only talk trash. People really weren't joking about the HoN community.

Believe it or not, you're very lucky if it's only half.

I've been playing AR 3's with 2 friends so I'm guessing a lot less smurfs play 3s. I played 2 5v5 games and that wasn't pretty.

I now only play jungling heros.
No fucking annoyance of last-hitting.

Stacking is fun. Ganking is easier/fun
Good pace of gold and experience.
Someone better gets a solo lane.

Zephyr or Lego are my favourite junglers.

You will find as you progress higher in overall skill level, soloing and last hitting becomes the easiest thing to do out of everything...

I'm working on stacking and jungling. I really hate that pygmy creep. I forget what it is. But it's that two-legged ram dude with an aura and his little brother.

THey hit for a lot and they give me jack-shit and they're either yellow or orange.
