Rankings will be hidden and used only for match making, concede has been termed "defeatist" by valve and they aren't adding it.

yea they say that now but when u see all the hon players come over, watch the forums become a mass qq on no concede.

pretty sure invoke is out tomorrow judging by the leaked portraits.

I've seen the portraits for several heroes not currently released(clinkz looks kinda silly). They have the art for a lot of them already and they've been "leaked" for quite some time now. The people that read into what's in the game files and what isn't are tinfoil wearers.

You can't say anything for sure just because of art files. Need word from valve or it could be anything.

They couldn't care less about HoN players, Icefrog took over creative control for most parts of the game and from the buzz won't let valve have much input in improving some things. Assuming a few blogs are real of course.

Also fuck them if they port invoker before meepo

if u are talking about the big leak with the potraits that happened a couple of months ago all of them that have been released have made it in the game.
2 weeks ago we got a leak with invoker and clinkz then we got clinkz the next week. i could be wrong but i havent seen any portraits of a hero that hasnt been released besides invoker if you have can you link?

the thing is the majority of the community will be hon and lol players well english speaking community anyway and if enough people want a forfeit function (and you have to look at it literally having a leaver system and no concede function will just force me to group with friends and just well farm without finishing it.)

id prefer meepo to.

I've been taking my remaining days before getting my house (and doing floors and walls and ceilings for the next two months) and solo queing.........


Why the fuck haven't they split players by regions yet, I had 4 straight games where I was the 5th man on a team of 4 BRs.

Steam is down right now, right?

[Morden Tral]

Yeah it is

[.misha.]

Ya it was... and I wanted to play dota 2 -.- If anyone wants to play sometime my steam is terminionaus. I only recieved my invite a couple days ago and I've only played 7 games. So far it's been extremely easy how many games do I have to win before I get matched up with somewhat decent people? I'm not like super good and probably shouldnt be complaining but it's somewhat boring heh.

[Morden Tral]

Considering just how horrifically bad you are at HoN i'm assuming you've been playing vs the BR crowd.

And ranking currently doesn't work, you'll stomp / get stomped randomly depending on if you are vs LoL players or 5 man semi competitive teams or 5 man PURE competitive teams.

My step brother was forced up against team EG in MM because of the lack of rankings.

[.misha.]

So far I'm 9 and 1 and my 1 loss was me being a dummy and trying to play it on a shitty laptop.  My comp was disassembled and the parts were scattered around my room at the time. I've gone 19 and 0 in games, Id much rather face players that aren't complete trash. The guys I've been up against auto attack and don't deny -_- All I'm saying is I'd rather lose and have a challenge then switch my brain off and win.

[Morden Tral]

You'll have to change the time of day or the servers you play on then, but there is no guarantee, I'm queuing up only on US servers and still getting BR teams.

Really sucks to play when you can't go experiment with heroes because if you don't pick a stomper your team will feed a loss.

[.misha.]

I see what you mean. I picked someone i hadn't played before and my team ended up dieing 8 times before I even ported back to buy items. It sucked because I was trying someone I hadn't gone before and I didn't stand a chance. I got another loss but ended up still being positive surprisingly. My team died 19 times and we killed 3.  It was lame but hey at least it didn't feel like ez mode.

Invoker confirmed for release tonight, my body is ready





Though still wish it was meepo
