    What? I was just about to log on too. Checking before logging!

    Edit:

    And this upsets me. 11 days of pure noobs trying to figure out games.

    PRO-TIP: PLAY PRACTICE GAMES PLEASE!

    Why did you post this marci?

    People can kick you out of games.

    Go ahead and try to troll. Watch what happens. (but if you really want to.... nostats games are the best place to do it... fun stuff)

    If you troll you get kicked. If you get kicked a lot you can't play MM. If you can't play MM you have to play Pub games. You will play Pub games with "No Leavers" option disabled. That means there is a lot higher possibility that you will have a feeder or leaver in every game and that you will simply ragequit yourself.

    If you want to get the best out of the game don't troll, ragequit, leave. You will get in a vicious cycle you might not ever get out of. That is unless you want to spend 20$ to reset stats.

    that's just 10 free no-stat games. It's like the ghetto area of a city. Full of leavers, assholes and such.

    I think everyone is aware of that and 10 dayers are full shit. You don't want to be around them unless you have friends to bring in.

    Bought myself the Winston Charmadon skin, and may I say, he is quite the gentleman. He kills you with class and is very polite while doing so. Also, he's very "charming".

    inb4 LoL butthurt players come in saying: "S2 is copying Gentleman Cho'gath."

    No, S2 isn't. He's known as the "******ed" one of the game with his gumpy "hurr durr" voice, his slow movement speed. But he's rumored to be very smart because of his extreme intelligence gain per level.

    Strength per level = 2.2
    Agility per level = 1.8
    Intelligence per level = 2.8

    That's why Winston Charmadon exist. He's very sophisticated and smart.

    There are other HoN memes that are popular:

    - TOO BAD! IT'S ME BLACKSMITH!
    - Stay near tower, I pull them fukers in
    - They **** you in 3 seconds
    - it's not his fault he randomed
    - Port Lycan
    - 1720 PSR IRL
    - scouts ulti has a mini-stun
    - It's Slither
    - The Book of Scout
    - Keep Silence
    - My favorite character Zephyer (bird cool!)

    :P Good troll. But yeah, the person didn't realize everyone was talking about Beastmaster/Tundra and said: "They're probably talking about Lycan since he has 2 pets." and everyone was like: "....Lycan is Warbeast dude...".

    why did i buy the vindicator skin wiyt my gold coins ... . I rarely play vindi, and now i can't buy Winston.

    I hope they eventually make him 560 silver coins like the rest of the skin, instead of premium

    I deleted my post because I didn't want to start a flame war, but now that marci is here to jerk off their friend I just can't help myself. I should be careful though because marci likes to go cry to mod friends to give infractions. Despite trying hard to troll themselves.

    The simple fact that S2 has to give away F2P days and many other $10 sales is because the shits dying. You can't deny that and DOTA 2 will put the nail in the coffin. LoL probably won't be nearly as affected because it isn't trying to be a complete DOTA clone.

    So like I said, enjoy your dead game.

    We're enjoying this game a lot mainly because there are quite a few DoTA equivalences and the graphics are really nice but the $30 account is kind of throwing us off.
    Of course.
    And spending 80$-100$ for a console game with a maximum of 8 hours of playtime is MUCH better as opposed to unlimited hours for 30$.

    The mind of a F2P hardcore player never seizes to amaze me.

    I loved the old HoN played ewery day but now i'm newer turning it on

    P.S sry for bad english
    Learn the game mechanics and how it works before you even think about posting.

    There is a Training Clan and Forum Section for a reason.

    I don't even buy console games anymore for that reason unless its very long RPG games like Final Fantasy, Star Ocean, or Tales.
    I'm not sure if I'm a F2P hardcore player but I've had subscriptions to WoW, FFXI, Aion, Rift, PSO/PSU, so I'm involved in both gaming models.
    Why the assumptions?

    The reason that we want to buy HoN when its on sale is because we already have DoTA to play so we believe that $30 for better graphics isn't worth it. We have enough people to play 5v5 custom games so the MM, ranking, and all that fancy stuff doesn't matter to us since we only play with each other.
    And besides, why don't you want to save some money when you have the chance? :P

    Because 20 extra bucks is literally nothing. :l

    If I wanted to play DoTa, I would play DoTa.... Not HoN.

    HoN is 100% a DoTa clone. Everything about it down to the champions are exact clones of DoTa.

    I use to play DoTa. I own HoN, I play LoL......


    I don't enjoy playing exact remakes of good games.
