I'd say it depends on what lane youre' facing, if you're facing for example some lane with good auto attack harass or if you're gonna build helm of the black legion, you should probably buy shield, otherwise stats are good I suppose
Imagine a place where the Alps meet the Mediterranean, where you can pick autumn fruits in the morning, bathe in the Adriatic in the afternoon, and go night skiing in the evening…It’s Slovenia!

Probably common sense but hatchet+3 branches+ 2 tangos when you're against another meele solo or a dual meele lane (happens way to often in pubs and can get really silly).

It really depends on what level you're playing, in pubs pre-1700 you can go hatchet and regen for easier lasthits and prolonged stay in the lane. Against better opponents you'll most likely want to get shield because they're going to harass the shit out of you. Ideally you could get both but should start with just one and extra stats/regen.
Time is precious. Waste it wisely.

stop buying hatchet, your problem is solved, you have a shield and more regen.

The thing with the shield is that it can be bought in the sideshop, so if youre facing a lane not too crazy with harass, I dont think its a mistake to start with hatchet+potion+runes+some stats, then buy the shield asap with the early gold.

Im a big fan of the hatchet since they gave it a range attack on cooldown, just that itself will usually make the hatchet pay for itself relatively quick.

Can't say I like new creeps. Deviating from DotA is fine but they could stick a bit more with the Newerth theme and slowly but surely change the game so it reflects that more and more.
No trees behind bases and both mid ramps/surroundings look like a huge change though...

Can someone give me the reason why EW isn't played or banned at the top level ?

Not trying to say that he is imba but i just want to know the reasoning and why a guy like fb seems more popular.
fuck all those elitists brb watching streams of elite players.

ew is pretty strong in lane but beyond that he doesn't do much of anything. he's a slow farmer but needs a ridiculous amount of farm to actually start putting out damage. he's also very easy to pick off; flint has the same problem but the bonus range helps a good amount. i don't think ew is a terrible pick but i don't think he's a very strong one either

flint, on the other hand, is a decent amount better at being useful in teamfights and a lot better at actually carrying a team. he does require a good amount of farm, but once he gets it he'll be doing far more than ew. flint isn't particularly popular either tho, you really have to make sure your lineup can turtle behind him and that it properly supports him (as in it prevents him from dying instantly all day)

Not really sure how lack of trees behind fountain matters tbh.
But damn I looked at the trees and thought "whoa they look so different". Then I realized I don't even know what normal hon trees look like. Stumps too good.

EW could possibly work as a semi-carry style hero as he's got some nice tools at his disposal. The problem with him is that heroes like Valk or CD are just plain better than he is at this role.
When we're talking hardcarry Flint is way more better than EW because he's all about dealing damage with base attacks, he gets AoE damage/slow/tower kill, ministuns and long range nuke to boost it up. EW has single target silence, 2 random targets slow/nuke and AoE stun if enemies don't have truesight. EW needs to be using his skill while FB can just stand there and take people out.

Flint is better because he has passives to make the late game transition to carry much stronger, EW is more of a mid carry like CD except her abilities aren't as broken for mid carry like CD and she can't farm as quickly or be as useful the bird and the 5 second silence is all very nice but there are better options out there for a mid carry.

blah stumps.

I haven't played a lot of HoN in a while. Just haven't wanted to. Played one game the other day and was just bored with it. I have been keeping up with the updates, but there is nothing to really draw me back into it. Maybe 3.0 will change things. Just gotta wait.
