[Introduction] Welcome to HoN

This Blog was originally intended for people who had minimal knowledge of Heroes of Newerth (HoN), with the intention of getting better.  This post is for people who have never played this game, and would like to learn the basics, and what HoN is. 

Heroes of Newerth is a player vs player game, in which two armies clash.  The objective is for each team to destroy the enemy's throne, heavily guarded structures at opposing corners of the map. Players use a variety of heroes to aid the cause, and are assisted by allies (who also use heroes) and AI-controlled allied fighters (generally much weaker) called "creeps".  In RPG style, the hero gets progressively stronger as the game continues.

 

If you're interested in learning how to play HoN, fantastic, but a word of caution.  HoN is an amazingly fun game, that is constantly evolving and I highly recommend it.... however, it is also notoriously hard to learn.  The purpose of this blog is to help make that easier, but even with this, it's not a walk in the park.

That said, if you're interested in learning more, feel free to read up on some basics with my earlier post:  Useful Links and Information

Welcome to Newerth, if you're new, I hope you enjoy yourself.  As always feel free to leave questions or comments!

Many people have been complaining about Tremble and we'll review how to deal with this hero in my next post.
