write a guide on the easiest way to own right now assuming it's a public game and you're on your own.

I hate playing alone and having idiots trying to tell me what to do because they have a higher PSR rating and no common game sense.

well, you could pick scout and go bfury -> damage.

I myself have only played scout once (game ended in like 17 minutes so its not that good of a game).


I prefer maliken, hes really strong in lane and is a great team fighter. His nuke is a sword throw that deals damage (as well as synergy with your 2nd ability) and maims a target for like 4 or 5 seconds. He can also blink to his sword at any time, which synergys with his ult really well.

His second ability allows you to buff your sword, to either do more damage or less damage. If you deal more damage, you deal some damage to yourself to do said damage. The less damage heals you when you attack as well. They also give extra damage/more healing on your sword throw ability (the damage part give your sword throw + 70 damage for 40 of your health).

His third ability is an hp trigger passive. The lower your hp, the faster you attack.

His ult is awesome. you become a demon, and everyone within 400 range of you when you cast your ult becomes feared (confused/silenced/disarmed, i dont think it works on magic immune people though). He is a ranged demon with faster base attack speed, 600 range, and aoe splash in a small radius. also for the first 2 seconds you get an armor buff of 20/40/60, then it gradually goes to zero over the rest of the ult's duration.

He is really strong, i enjoy him in any lane and find him very flexible ganking/carrying. He obviously can be played multiple ways due to having alot of synergy to rape people. I normally go vang -> phase on him to give him hp for his damage sword + phase to just go gank people. After that its up to you, my normal carryish build is s&y heart crit (since his passive changed, it used to be a crit instead of attack speed). You can also be part of the team that may need to go other items, like i went diffusal one game vs an omniknight, and still had plenty of firepower/hp to live in team fights. Overall hes a great hero.

imo you really need at least 1 reliable ally (with one of u controlling mid and the other creating/initiating ganks and warding) for consistent wins from 1500-1700... otherwise you're bound to lose a couple games no matter how well you play individually. after you reach 1700+ just come play with us

Zel, I just pulled 2 games in a row at 730xp/min, so i'm wondering if Johnfarmer gets an early HoD and pulls ancients until he's around level11-2, then plows through the entire stack with bfury/maliken/whatever straight to 15-16 then goes on a gigantic gank rampage?

Level 25 at 45 minutes-ish is around the target for that xp rate, if i'm recalling correctly.

Also: Maelstrom and basher don't work on illusions now.
The number you have dialed is out of porkchops.

edit: AHHHHhhhhhh fuck they must have just fixed it, just tested and images dont get the Basher stuns.. but they still get ability passives such as mana burn or crit/disable from scout.

EDITx2: LOL so apparently images also get Riftshards crits, so they can also double crit (and of course crit more often) on Scout. i still think Geometer's Bane is worth it, the stats are great and images that mana burn or crit+disable from your passives is pretty amazing. plus linkens still works on images so thats really good

You wanna carry the team every game? get magebane or scout depending on the heroes involved

if magebane get: perseverance, phase boots, yasha--> manta, basher ('brutalizer') OR finish linken's if you really need it, then get linkens (null stone) / basher, Whispering Helm (helm of the dominator), MKB or satanic

yes, your Geometer's Bane (manta) images will not only mana burn but also bash on separate cooldowns. They also get the 100dmg MKB procs as well, and they also each block spells with linkens.
basically you blink, geometers, their hero is pretty much permastunned and very quickly mana burned to death.

for Scout you do the basically the same thing (make sure you put up 2 electric eyes at the start of the game), except i often get a fast battlefury because it's insane for farming. After you get a battlefury you cant really be stopped from farming..and once you get Geometer's Bane your images will crit as well as disable, and obviously the Basher, Linkens, MKB also all effect images. you'll also want a BKB if they have disables that own you, and get Riftshards (crystalis that upgrades like a dagon), because the crits stack with your passive crit and you can double crit for 1400 easily

geometer's bane + brutalizer was JohnFarmer's secret, just finished a 23-0 game with magebane with that build

I'd imagine this works nicely on other good agi melee carries (especially ones that have passives) like Madman but i havent tried it yet

Depending on the times you're available, you can play with me until your PSR is where you want it to be and then you can go play with testie. I could use whatever tips you can give me and I can play a serviceable support hero.

My roommates and I have been absolutely destroying 1600-1700 teams in 3v3 with Magmus/Jeraziah/Succubus. Our total KDR is 45+ kills and about 5 deaths, over the course of four games so far. The team wrecks, if anybody thinks their team could pick a good counter to it hit me up because I'd love to see it!
good vibes only

He might be low but i'd play with him
I'd play his brains out
Except it will take him longer to get higher ranked if he plays with us because he'll gain way less points at the moment. (Huge rank disparities means you'll usually gain / lose less per game).

from the descriptions, the site, etc, i was expecting much, MUCH more from LoL.... i was expecting a very professional game on par with HoN, with different art style but still good graphics, an interesting new approach on hero customization with the whole summoner thing, new spells, etc
but apparently, designers were like "oh, lets copy the skills in dota, change them a bit, and call them our own!"
so i was playing and looking at skills and going like "oh, ok, this is wd's stun, this is magmus's ult" etc etc
some skills had such bad graphics that you wouldnt even notice something was being cast....
omg, complete and utter disappointment....
fget about comparing LoL with HoN, LoL is not even on par with DotA......

edit: btw, these are just my first impressions on it... ill still play it a bit more tho, to make sure im not jumping to conclusions, but srsly.... first impression sucked



I've been playing LoL the last few weeks and have played about 35 games played so far, my first impression of it wasn't good, but it has been growing on me ever since. The art looks good to me. Its wc3 style art, but a little crisper. Hero models are unique and easy to distinguish. Spells become more obvious, once you learn what they are.

LoL a lot more gank oriented than dota/hon. Juking is more fun with grass all over the place in the jungles which can lead to some pretty epic chases. The rune and mastery system is interesting, but doesn't feel complete. Lower level cap, and lower hp towers make for shorter games. 30-40 min range seems average. I also look forward to trying out different maps as they are released.

My biggest complaints about LoL is that it initially feels awkward to RTS/Dota players who are used to being able to select units/heroes. With LoL, your hero is always selected, but there is no circle or distinguishing graphic to help identify it as selected. Hard to explain, other than it just feels weird controlling your hero for a while.

I tried HoN, and I just don't see what the fuss is about. To me, it just feels like a more awkward version of dota, with uglier (albeit crisper) graphics, and with better netcode/matchmaking/ladder. I don't think there is room for both HoN and DoTA in the competitive scene, and dota will win out once people have to start paying $30+ to play HoN.
