A noob question: yesterday I noticed that Huskar's dominator and activated spear are somehow stacking, he is stealing hp + applying the spear, and for what I know two orbs should not stack, so will someone explain what actually happens? (maybe they take turns, but I cannot tell, its too fast)

Huskar's Burning Spear is not an orb. And yeah, it's a bit arbitrary.

when huskar is using firespear he gets no lifesteal, i am 99.987% sure about that(or unless some bug in d2...). helm is a popular build on huskar - turn off firespear at low hp and then heal+lifesteal you can have some crazy regen in few seconds.

arrow effects are like this with lifesteal

singlecast (click, or hotkey usage with autocast off): lifesteal attack
autocast on: arrow effect

Something like that?

http://honcast.com/2011/10/13/honcast-top-10-community-rankings-1013

Notice: I don't agree with this ranking at all. TDM being 6 there and they've been destroying everyone for some time now.

I played with a smurf named "wardyouidiot", who claimed to have won the grand finals for Bloodline Champions at Dreamhack. Real or no?

I wish they renamed Cthuluphant to Chaugnar Faugn, which it really is...

EG broke up due to lack of support from the EG organisation, couldn't get sponsorship to go to lans etc. SK broke up as they started having roster issues, couldn't keep a team of 5 together from 1 week to the next and sk decided to drop them. MSI is still really dominant, they changed the entire metagame with their jungle strats which everyone has now caught on to. OK I'm not sure about I think they dropped their roster, picked up a new one then the old OK formed KD gaming . I don't really think thats right though. New Team is EZ which has some of the old EG in it (Chu, Korok) and some of the old SK (Yoda, used to have Bdiz and Angrytestie), currently the NA powerhouse and is ranked first in the current NASL season.

Some of the old players like Fuji moved on to dota 2. Scene is pretty volatile atm, lots of swapping and drama.

Thanks Wonderwall, I would think many of the HON players would eventually go to Dota 2 scene since many of them began with Dota to begin with.

Chu was my favorite on EG, glad he's still around. Freaking fuji was a beast too. Bkid went to dota 2 as well?

Any specific game that is amazing recently? I dont know the meta game right now, whats so special about this jungling? No more trilanes?

You forgot to mention Trademark eSports (former SGTY) which is having pretty huge impact on the scene right now. If I remember correctly they have some players from the old Druidz, but I may be completely wrong on this as I wasn't really following the rosters so much back then.

What is amazing recently is the appearance of HoN Wiki:
http://honwiki.net/wiki/Heroes_of_Newerth_Wiki

It has pretty good info on the heroes, items, strategies and so forth.

For vods, tournaments etc. you should visit honcast.com.

Even more, up-to-date info on tournaments, teams and what not can be found here:
http://wiki.honreplays.org/index.php?title=Main_Page

wooozy

Team EZ might be done in a few months. Chu's talking on his stream about how eager he is to leave HoN for either LoL or Dota2 once he's finished with the upcoming tournaments.

Been playing gemini some. I'm liking the idea of basically always using ult on him and just stacking agi items, but doing this takes a lot of form. The main form seems way easier to use than the 2 micro'd forms, but microing the two forms to farm just feels imba because his stat gain is waaay higher than meepo's

semantics

his twin fang blink shit start up time imo needs to be larger it's too instant. very easy to dodge shit with it. makes him too hard to kill between that and his ult.

Could someone please provide me with an analysis of what exactly I'm doing wrong?
It seems I can't ever win a game.
