Heroes of Newerth

Does anyone play this game? It's only in it's beta stages still but I'm really enjoying it and would like to get some team play going. For you that don't know what it is, it's a stand alone dota based game. I personally never played one round of dota, but like I said I'm having a blast in HoN.

If anyone is really interested I have a couple beta invites I can use.

There's another clone of DoTA out there, this one by the original people, and free to play. Use this link and I'll get some sort of bonus:

DOTA player here.

I never played HoN, but saw screenshots and gameplay from YouTube. Graphics look better than War3, but I hear that it's super unbalanced.

My brother played LoL. Crap graphics and gameplay. Play DOTA or HoN instead.

(to compare games, simply YouTube gameplay videos)

I play LoL right now, I find it rather enjoyable, but maybe only because i play with a bunch of friends in RL and were all in skype whenever we play a game together

Ive head of HoN but its still a closed beta right now

I've played DoTA, LoL, and HoN and from my experience LoL is the easiest and most fun to play.

Lets be honest, the shop system in DoTA is retarded, takes hours and hours of playing just to figure out how to make various items. LoL is nice enough to show you what it takes to build an item and what the item you are building can be used to craft.

I don't have any problem with the graphics, they are better than WC3 graphics thats for sure. Unit pathing is 100% better in LoL than WC3, you won't find yourself glitching out just because you need to walk around your own units.

HoN is a piece of garbage, stay far far away. DoTA is waaaaay better than HoN, and LoL is the best overall in my opinion.

Raush is a hater, HoN is a good game if you get into the beta, won't buy it but I will have fun with it for now.

HoN isn't as unbalanced as people say, it's getting better every update.

I have 300 games on LoL, and a few on HoN.

HoN is a lot of fun, the champs are more interesting. The map is bigger. I think the flow of the game is better.
LoL is a lot easier to learn. But I think that they are both worth a try. They sent me 3 Beta Invites for HoN, so pm me if you want one.

Yeah I play HoN too. Has the most terrible community ever though.

Played a few games of HoN yesterday, 2 of them were fixed.

First one I joined and didn't see the additional game options, it was int only and the other team waited until 5 seconds down, every damn one picked vindicator (Each had a global silence for 3 seconds)

Second one was worse, host had another account logged in and fed himself from my team.... WTF if you ever see Koolrootkid or Beast_Sauce call them out on that shit.

Well, the one bad thing about HoN is the player base is absolute horrible. LoL's isn't that much better.
I always go to the options in HoN and hit All Players, Noobs only, and NO -em mode.
