HoN for me. why? because Dota 2 has the stupid input delay. after playing HoN and it's fast paced gameplay, dota/dota2 is just too slow. usually games are 50minute farmfests without heavy ganking like in HoN.

BUT.
Valve >>>>>>>>>>S2 Games

LOL fast paced? you mean having the HEAL + SPEED BOOST spell at LVL1 for FREE? How to GANK??? BORING like hell man. its a stupid farmfest. just watch the competitive LoL ( competitive? LOL) and its just farmfests all game.

Dota 2.... definitely the meta-game is affected by the SEA HoN players that got the beta keys. In HoN everybody likes to gank. Ganking is very fun compared to farming for >40 mins. atm HoN is just a better polished game compared to Dota 2 and LoL. HoN doesn't have input delay like Dota 2 and the mechanics and engine is very smooth.

I disagree fully. Sorry. LoL is a farmfest with summoner spells like the free blink. You can't deny the facts. They do not play safe because of not wanting to risk, it's just that ganking in LoL is just a waste of time. Many pro players agree.

Anyways enjoy your game while I enjoy mine. Have fun. Good thing we can choose since both are free.

It was I think WCG or some other big gaming event last year. I don't remember. I do remember however that the game became such a farmfest even the commentators had nothing to comment on except until late in the game. Farmfest as compared to other games in the genre (HoN, Dota). The way the games work currently, wards is a must in all mid-high level pub games and pro games(competitive)..

I remember reading an interview a year ago one of the top players in the ladder stating that the game is against the ganking meta game. Sorry but I can't dig up the source already. Also, during last year, the number 1 player in the ladder is a HoN pro that played in LoL for just 3 or 4 months with the sponsor of Riot Games(he get unlimited IP or CP(?). Needless to say, his opinion on the game was "trash" too.

I apologize if I seemed biased or whatever. Just stating my opinion as a old player of Dota( since 2008) LoL ( since international closed beta) and HoN (2009 5th batch of closed beta). I still play all 3 games since my friends are playing in all 3 games.

are you even serious?
