i dont think you can compare the games... and especially not on a HoN forum, i think you know the answer to the question HoN vs Lol..

i've recently heard of HoN, more like now, and I've come to conclude that HoN copied Dota and just plainly stole the idea's from Dota and just made a rip off copy of every character/item in that game and even put a monthly fee on that game, hence the "HON VS. DOTA SIMILARITIES" page right on the homepage of the site. i admit that LoLz also created a game VERY similar to Dota, but thats because the original creators of Dota went on to create LoLz, and on the front of page of LoLz, it says Dota & LoLz, as opposed to "DOTA VS LOLZ". Discuss.


LoL went the stupid korean mmorpg route of paying for ingame content, now nothing you buy can imbalance the game, but you can buy heroes that take forever to unlock otherwise.., hon you pay your thirty bucks and it's fair to everyone, I lag alot on LoL ~5fps and I still went 7-0 the only game I played at, on HoN if im lagging at all I get raped, HoN is way more competitve, and idk where you get this idea of a monthly fee..

what about I send you a trial invite, you play 10 games of HoN and judge by yourself?


Pm me your email if you want that invite.

HoN and LoL are very different interpretations of the same idea.

Similar concepts :
3 lanes
5vs5
heroes have regular skills, and one ultimate skill.
Items can drastically change the intent of the character.
both games have similar character archtypes ; Carry, tank, ganker, nuker, pusher, etc.
Both have similar strategies.

HoN exclusive :
Denying creeps ; killing your own to 'deny' the enemy experience and gold
many familiar characters from DotA
Ultimate creep is Kongor ; He drops a 10 minute token that allows the user to revive when killed

LoL exclusive :
Certain creeps can give buffs with killed (dragon + golem + ultimate monster)
LoL introduces Ability power ; this allows casters to scale better
LoL does not contain denying or creep blocking ; thus lessening the gap between melee and ranged characters (as cited by their website)

Ultimately, it's preference ; I noticed that people on HoN tend to be more competitive ; and I do prefer it. However, LoL is not bad by any means.


wow +1 for an informative and unbiased post

I agree with the poster above and what he quoted. I've only played LoL and enjoyed playing it. I would like to add that I do like the RPG type feel LoL has as well. There is a talent tree and rune books as well to further customize your heroes.

I've always wanted to give HoN a try though as the graphics do look really good.

i dont know why you guys are making such one sided arguments about how great one game is and how bad another is. just because you don't like it doesn't mean other people don't.
