no, you are getting owned cause you are bad (which is normal if you are new I guess)

do what every other new player does and pick a hard carry

There is no best hero.
The problem or fun things about HoN is that you need to know every hero, every distance of a spell and every item.
If you know this you know how to play and you will see you will do better.
My advice, play as many heroes as you can, dont keep playing the same since you will never learn who you play against.

IF you are new and you want to learn 1 hero, pick a support, mostly int heroes are this

Play plague rider every game, easiest hero and biggest impact with the least skill.

Its basically impossible to be good until you know what other heroes does and how they will play against you / how much damage do they do.

Pred right now; his stonehide is stupid. can break out of controls/magic stuns, and immune for 5.25 seconds.

no you just suck

Try RA hes the Flaming guy hes easy to use for begginers all u gotta do is watch health.

night hound is very good, just run around in circles waiting for people to be low enough to finish them off with a pounce
