Cause people usually prejudge him, since they have bad experience with people choosing scout and stealing every single kill. :)


honestly don't see the problem with a carry hording kills >.> i dunno, maybe it's because I don't have much experience with HoN

play more support heroes first
and heroes who can control more than 1 unit like ophelia/hellbringer

i´m around 1500 mmr too..and i see that noobs always pick carry and fail


Hm, I see. I wish there was a tooltip or something saying what each hero was classified as, still trying to figure out all that stuff at champ select lol

learn support b4 carry, it worked wonders for me, ive been carrying much better because i know how support works and when to go in


I'm not new to the genre, just HoN'

swiftblade
madman
forsaken archer
zephyr
puppet chronos
valkyrie
pesti
maliken
panda
pred

are all carries/semi carries with ALOT more presence both in laning phase and midgame
all though scout is one of the hardest melee carry ingame, but as i said be4 he suckballs in midgame/laning phase and if you're playing against any decent player that have half a brain they know you cant do shit for 20 min and they will just take out 6 towers, get a 10000 gold lead and fuck you in the ass


Hm, I had a hard time with forsaken archer for some reason. Puppet master looked fun though, as well as the magnet guy who can jump around lol. I'd only want pestilence if other team chose a stealth right?

HoN and LoL are quite different, though
i guess you can see for yourself now that you're playing
if you had played dota you'd probably be a lot more comfortable
regardless, if you don't see a problem with scout, don't stop playing him if you want to play him
eventually you'll see the deeper complexities that come from playing hundreds of games

i do like him, though
having wards at important areas where gankers would traverse allows you to solo carry a game where your supports aren't buying wards


also, pestilence is an amazing hero
hon isn't particularly rock-paper-scissors
i mean sure, there are going to be line ups and particular heroes that will counter other heroes, but pestilence has an amazing stun, is a capable carry, his ultimate synergizes with every hero, etc

I see, didn't realize he had a stun and what not.

I did play DotA just not a whole lot because I hated the shop system. I spent the majority of games trying to find what I was looking for ;( Luckily I have a bunch of friends on hon at around 1800 mmr who just carry me around while i learn :D

Really the only difference imo between HoN and LoL that I can tell, is that LoL is more aesthetically clean and easier on the eyes, and HoN allows jungle jukes and denying. Well, that and the fact that you can pretty much 1v5 in HoN xD

tbh its the exact opposite, the shop system in LoL is infurating, visually it is like a comic book and isn't very smooth at all, and in LoL theres always one hero/player dominating the game while everyone else does nothing. -_-

maybe I should say rather that it feels like I'm playing a game with megablocks.

not at all, sure he works great versus invis but 100/180 gold ( ward/dust >> pesti in that sense ) but pesti is a strong initiator and he will give your team so much from the -15 armor, not to mention it will help you do kongor in like 10 seconds
