What is so wrong with wisp
i only got killed 19 times
not too bad

Wisp is incredibly complicated and needs a LOT of communication from all of your team or else you can't co-ordinate teleports to full potential. If you like the support role try someone like Venomancer or Lich.

 

[ViperStriker]

Yeah, Wisp was a pretty bad first choice, if you want to play supports, as Rhi said Veno and Lich are great choices.

Veno can toss up those wards of his that, if I'm correct, give true sight of an area and attack, and with Lich he can use his Frost Armor to give his allies an armor boost for team fights.

Not true sight, just vision :( They don't detect invis. Everything else is correct though!

Gosh you guys are such haters trolling me lol. Funny thing about hon I call some of the heros by Dota hero names lol I just think hon is more balanced and has a much smoother running engine

The heroes for beginners part should be changed to:

Meele: Skeleton King
Ranged: Viper

But going meele in a first couple of games can backfire too.

I hate playing Melee and Viper is literally the most easy-mode Carry you could ever play.

You've literally been more helpful teaching me DotA then a lot of my teachers in high school were teaching me various things. Kinda sad, but cool at the same time. =)

HoN's combat is too complex, you cant actually see whats happening. I paid for it and really regret that I did. HoN is only graphics and profit, not for gaming experience.

To me its easier to tell whats happening in hon. DOta feels like everything blends together. Maybe one of us is color blind haha.

 

[staticvoid]

Well, I did get 59 copies of Dota for free, sent them all to my friends, and not any of us actually know how to play the game.>.<

Time to study up.

I randomed Viper and had a blast actually doing stuff that wasn't dying, only to find out later that Viper is considered the easiest of easy-mode @_@
