Archetypes of HoN Gamers : The Quiet Noob

This is part 2 of a series I’m writing on Archetypes of HoN  gamers. The Bully, The Actual Noob, The Farmer, The Conceder, The Instructor, and The Leader.
The Quiet Noob

As you can see I have two different “Noob” Archetypes. What’s the difference between them? Well, the quiet noob is just new to this game, but has enough common sense to be useful. Often they had a friend get them into the game, but their friend actually took them through a practice game and explained that tower diving is bad. Even …

New Concept Art Released for HoN

These were posted on the HoN Facebook account. I included the quotes under each one. If you are interested in seeing all the concept art they’ve posted you can go here.

“Pyro maybe? She definitely looks better :)”

“Should this be Magmus?” ..I hope not.

“Is this something new coming in to HoN?”

“Part of an ability of the new guy also uploaded and shown today.”
What do you think? I really hope they don’t change magmus.. or pyro to be honest. I wish they made these new heroes all together.

Warlocks, Overpowered?

So, what makes a warlock so imba? Is it skill? Gear? Luck? The OP-ness of the class?
Most players that don’t play the class themselves consider the warlock class to be unfair, over-powered, un-balanced…. But, is that really true? Being a warlock player myself I would by all means disagree. So, to shed some light on the topic let’s take a quick look on the most frequently used PvP specs, shall we?

Before discussing about the specs, a key aspect of the warlock everyday PvP spec needs some attention. The most important talent …

Ok if there ever was an amateur video this was it, but I’m glad they did it. It’s nice getting a sneak peak every so often rather than “can’t tell ya about it, but we’re working on it.”

Don’t worry, he picks up the camera at :50 seconds. I like the orange and blue background. (Go Broncos! …anyone? …fine.) You really don’t get to see the stuff that we actually use until the end such as match creation and match stats. Can’t see much, but you get what …

A Warlock Has Found His Way Into My Little Blogging Corner!

How dare he!? Right? Warlocks are sneaky… I originally advertised for a Shadow Priest blogger. Well, I got some kind of shadow. A Warlock sent me a witty, funny, and informative post on PvPing. I was shocked to learn it wasn’t just an I WIN button that gets secretly unlocked when you hit 80.

Let’s give a warm welcome to Thebanned. He’s from Romania and plays on the Sylvanas (EU) server. He’s into arenas and has hit 1.8k rating. He’s hoping to go for a title in the upcoming season. Be …
