maybe you should read and learn to deduce things people say then.

the thing that made dota good was that there were known consequences to the things you did and the movements you made. i also like how all the skills are clear (graphics wise) and you have full control in huge 5v5 battles. to me, i feel that after a simple 3v3 in hon, you start to lose control over your character and your autoattacks and use on cool down of skills really makes you faceroll the opponent without a second thought. i don't even want to start on -em games.

anyhow, i do think hon sounds great on paper and it does perform in it's aesthetics and game design (rankings, leavers etc.) but there's something different about it that makes it less viable at high skill levels. i mean we used to have complexity play in dota tournaments.

either way, i'm sure this game will pick up speed since dota is pretty much going to get less and less attention from ice frog and hon will be it.
