Thank you! :D

There's a button on the top left of the mini map where it switches the regular colours of the heroes into red/green. This helps out people who just started HoN tremendously. This way you can distinguish whos on your team and whos not. When i started HoN couple months back i didn't know wtf hero was what or if they were on my team or not, felt like a total noob ahha

And remember to pay attention to minimap... 2 people missing on their team = don't cross the river alone; go and tower-hug. 3-5 people missing on their team = you should not only tower-hug, hide!

Any tips for a newb at this? I've never played DOTA before, but am starting to get the hang of this. I tend to get raped earlier on. Jeraziah is my preferred Hero right now, and have managed to win one game, with good team-mates, being support.

But, whenever I get into a random draft game, I get owned because I have no idea how to play the heroes.

So yes, any tips/pointers to not suck? lol

^you just gotta grind at it man. I mean sure we can show and try to teach you but its pretty much all you. Just play a bunch of AR or RD games and pick some heroes and see how they work. That's the only way you can get used to the hero/items.

^
I'll just keep at it then, was juts get frustrated when I get owned so fast.

read the basic strategy stuff on the forums about play mechanics and not getting ganked. theyre really good for real noobs.

Just got 3 more HoN keys to give out! PM ME IF YOU NEED ONE

anyone still got keys for the game?

range heroes are always easy to play early game ... abuse melee heroes early game and farm arachna is probably my favourite range hero ... but i usually play Legionnaire or Magebane, either rape melee or rape casters lol ...
getting owned isn't the must frustrating thing in this game imo ... most frustrating is trying to find a game when you are 1900+ PSR bcuz people below 1900 don't want to lose, and people above 1900+ don't want to fuck up their record from farming newbs either ... i had to intentionally lose to drop my PSR in order to find a game :s

^ When you are in the 1700s+, you only lose 1 or 2 PSR if you lose in a game full of 1500s.

i believe the PSR is calculated from the % chance a team will be able to win ... so you will lose more PSR if the other team has only 25% win ratio

PSR is such a joke if you actually pay attention to it, stats are the way to go.
