HoN is still filled with assholes. If you don't like assholes I'd suggest Dota 2.

hon is a bit try hard but its also very trolly. BELIEVE ME. If you are a neutral player you'll be fine! btw, if you did such a thing as troll with pebblez... theres a button that disables help from players. HoN is great. If you are having trouble recognizing heroes its probably because you are still a noob (no offense). HoN is not very noob friendly but if you soldier through the harassment (which is easy IMO) you will find a fun, decently balanced, fastpaced MOBA with unique heroes to choose from. I would choose HoN or DotA 2 atm just because of the hero designs and the fast paced environment. Trolling and "fun" environment is also more present once you get past the vast amount of angry tryhards.. Take note that usually the angry tryhards are trolls in others games (myself included sometimes). HoN just has a very strangge community like that but just find the right people to plya with.

All the mobas are filled with assholes - at least dota, hon, lol and dota 2, cant tell about smite or others i havent tried.

For the original question: in hon it is way easier to 1v5 the enemy team than in the other mobas ive tried, that probably kept me at it for so long. Trolling won't get you banned if you're not too obvious with it - so don't stick to same person for 10 minutes and toss him immediatly your chuck comes off cooldown. Once or twice a game is fine, just say "oops, wrong one sry" or something.

Best way to boost your teams morale is to pick awesome hero like scout or nh, build codex and just last hit the enemeis that are certainly going to die. Also if you are below 1600 mock nh is really funny. Just watch how the enemies react to it.
