Feels right at home when I see/hear players on my team use HoN terms lol.
P.S: I'm assuming you have a Steam now (I remember you not really use Steam lol)

Venomancer isn't so good in pub games :p Just solo mid as lion or lina or something then double kill a lane when you hit 6, have someone buy you courier and rune wards, super easy.

The important thing is to say a name, e.g. Lina, can you buy courier please? i'll upgrade. If you just say "can someone get courier?" no one's gonna get it unless they're good.

Btw don't you folks feel that last hitting here is much easier than in HoN ? I think it has all to do with visuals. HoN is the only game where I would notably do awful in terms of lh and the way I see it, at least for me, the visuals are to blame. I can actually pull off some decent scores in every other game when I try to and I just couldn't make this happen in HoN, some credit goes to latency as well but much less so.
Small comment on latency, I can tell that LoL has spoiled me hardcore when it comes to this, there it ranges between 17-30 ping for me which is an almost instant response which leads me to pressing keys extremely fast much like you would in sc2 ( sc2 does such a kickass job at logging your inputs, other games need to get there, I actually can press keys too fast to log in LoL as well ) and this a lot of times translates into the game not responding which just sucks and leads anyone who is watching you to think that you are a terrible player when you actually responded better than properly.

Dunno about last hits, my games have been alchy, doom, kunka (double bfury :O), and roaming clock and 4/5 of those heroes farm well above average/jungle in mid game. I actually feel HoN last hit is the easiest once you get used to it and LoL I felt my heroes had absolutely zero control. Because almost everything in LoL had a cast time the heroes felt super super slow. Also, LoL has really fast turn time on every champion, that's part of the delay your feeling. The turn speed is actually really important, especially when you got batrider taring you.

I added you, display name is Milkshake.
And LoL might feel weird after playing HoN but overall it's the easiest game to last-hit in. The fact that you can use your spells so often to farm at next to no cost helps aswell.
Nature's Prophet is sexy too, his teleport is bugged so you can tele anywhere you want.

Unless they patched it edit: no update as far as I can see, and I did it yesterday. Later in the evening I'll play him and test again. Not sure if you need to have explored that area before, but it's certainly not only visible areas.  What what? I just won a 2v5, and we were 2v5 from 3 minutes into the game.

I got pretty decent with him playing mid wars in HoN but here it feels way clunky, the hitbox on hook is huge and that is not a good thing, can't really snipe with it that well when you combine that factor and the rather slow speed on it.
Favorite item found, blood stone, item is just awesome and easy to build.

And you start with 5 charges too, used to be 0 on HoN.
Great item for high mana upkeep champions/tanks.
IMO a core item on Leshrac.

Hey is there any way to decrease the lag? I can barely play the game after 30min of playing.

Latency or machine related ? if is the latter you can probably deal with it by rebooting the client and giving your memory a few seconds to unload the previous load.

We won every game tonight with rather decent scores like a boss ( were stuck in a 3v5, not in a favor, sucked ).

Yeah good night. After trying pretty much all of the heroes, I'm starting to favor some. (Sven, Vengeful to name a couple).
