HoN is quite far from LoL. Actually, those two games have pretty much nothing in common except belonging in the same genre. HoN resembles DoTA, and not LoL.

This game is pretty much over already, legionnaire is almost unstoppable at this point. Maybe if he does something incredible stupid, but i do not see that happening.

Now on to the hero picks. torturer = tormented soul tundra = Beastmaster demented shaman = shadow priest. glacius = crystal maiden. pyromancer = slayer legionnaire = axe Bunch of other posts like this basically on the last 3 pages. Seems kind of stupid.
Those are all DoTA heroes?

Seems kind of stupid. you are completly wrong, for one they are talking about DOTA which is NOT League of Legends. Dota is the original game from which both hon and lol got the idea, and both have ported heroes from DOTA not each other. BTW, Antimage is not a directly ported as Magebane, the second pack of heroes have modifications too, some of them at least
LoL is like dota for dummies (no offence but they removed one of the few individual skill-dependant moves from the game), Hon is like dota for hmm, idk, something like dota which has reconnection and is different a bit

That's the impression I was getting from about the 8 minute mark. I'm not a HoN expert at all, but is there any feasible way for MSI to come back? This seems to be one of the most frustrating things about this gametype... even with an insurmountable lead the winning team can't close out the win for a long long time.

Hahahahaha. That cliff walk. That was hilarious.

Producer of HoN. They used similarly to someone saying "lolBlizzard" after a bug occurs in sc2.

Okay woops my bad, totally must have somehow mixed up Dota and LoL. Coulda sworn someone said LoL, ehhh -.-
Meant Dota and HoN then. Ugh

"pce" - glacius looooooooool

In general, what's the tier of difficulty for DotA/HoN/LoL? Which is considered most difficult? I've heard DotA's harder to deal with due to the pathing ... ?

despite what you guys will say about HoN or really any game like DotA or LoL, it is an unforgiving game at a high level of play. there is a big disparity in what you will see between an average player and a great player.
pro players in HoN will often have around 150-200apm for controlling just their one unit for example. it is partly because everything that spawns in the game especially your own hero, provides gold once killed (you can choose to 'deny' the gaining of that gold by heroes of another team by attacking and killing your allied units/teammates)
HoN or DotA is especially unforgiving when you are a new player, even if you are just playing against other new players. the amount of knowledge and general control you need will catch up to you by the beginning minutes of the game. i have played all of these games for a reasonable amount of time and with/against pre-made teams most of the time, and i actually find it potentially more frustrating than most games of starcraft.
what i mean to say is, don't look down on a genre or game because it looks silly or easy unless you want to appear simple or silly yourself.. simple as that.

They pretty much have to hope that the other team fucks up. They have to play very defensive and hope that the other team gets to agressive and maybe overextends. This way they might win a huge teamfight and can turn the game around.

i don't know, seems like the hellbourne (right? the top right team ^^) are striking back right now. i dunno if legionnaire is all awesome later on, i don't think so. let's see!
|
Anyone find it funny that caster said something about SC2 saying from Artosis, but used to advise the thing exactly opposite what Artosis advises?
|
Enjoying the games, but the casters do call games a bit early? after first few kills they already kinda declared Fanatic MSI lost.. I know that a good early farm does favor one team a lot, but meh.. found it a bit annoying.
Other than that, so far some nice action

Why is the stream up there when it's streaming hon.... I HAVE BEEN TRICKED. lol
