HoN~


HoN or Heroes of Newerth is an action real-time strategy video game developed by S2 Games and the game was heavily inspired by the Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne custom map Defense of the Ancients (DotA).

In 2010, HoN was introduced to the world and after playing it, I found that HoN is almost the same as DotA. But, HoN gameplay is a little bit faster, more new heroes and the best reason to play HoN is because of its high quality graphic as compare to DotA.



There are lots of new features introduced in HoN that you can't find in DotA. The additions that differentiate HoN from DotA are features independent from game play; such as tracking of individual statistics, in-game voice communication, GUI-streamlined hero selection, game reconnection, match making, player banlists, penalties for leaving and chat features.

Besides that, HoN also has a feature called "The Announcer" which is an alternate announcer to the normal announcer in the game. There are few types of announcer available and the one that I like the most is the "British Gentleman Announcer Voice". Click here! For example;

"Gentleman...The KING!"
"Know your place, peasant!"
"For Queen and Country!"

The announcer is also a good practice for my British accent as well. Lol!


For those who played HoN, kindly add me as your buddy in game name "ilvA"! 

Deadwood! My favorite hero!
See you guys in game!
