League of Legends vs Heroes of Newerth(LoL vs HoN) – the fight for the throne

Part I

Ahhhh, the ever never-ending question- LoL or HoN, which one shall eventually take Dota’s throne? I would first like to go on and say that Dota was, is and forever will be the father of death match RPGs, even long after its player base drops drastically. HoN and LoL are basically the same game but in two completely different worlds; kinda like having a boxer and an artist twin- kinda. Well anyways this is gonna be an unbiased, hopefully many of you will agree, series of articles (most probably till part III) which will try to settle or unsettle the question once and for all. This site is pretty much HoN based so it’s time for a little introduction to LoL. Another little title biter, LoL is currently leading the way- CURRENTLY. Believe it or not HoN fans, but it’s true. This DOES NOT mean that it’s better than HoN, but has more players patronizing the game more.

Aite so just what’s the difference? Well, over the course of the week, I’ll be describing the most important aspects of the games that appeal to gamers. I’m not gonna go into unnecessary crap, just what people would want to see and play in a game- with a bit of other perks that people would prefer a game to have.  First up would be the graphics. Needless to say, graphics have to kick ass.

Let’s see how this goes. The people at S2 made sure that HoN looked good- real good.

I think Caruso says it all. Anyways…yea…Real, real good. One would see that amount of effort and detail it took to make graphics that improved upon Dota- this good. Now what about LoL?

Is he going to hug or bitchslap him?

Or let me put up a more…..revealing one…

Whooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

…….OK MAYBE THAT WASN’T NECESSARY

Point being, HoN is way more advanced in graphics than LoL. Still doesn’t mean LoL graphics are bad, they still are an improvement from Dota, but COME ON… there is no challenge there.

But HoN is too dark and …well, emo…

WHAT?!?!    But it’s true, some people DO say this….LoL on the other hand is more bright and happy…

But bright and happy is called GAY…..some people do say this as well….

What I’m trying to say is that those are just aspects of the graphics….one is darker, sexier and the other is kiddish and well…40 year old virgin wearing nothing but huge nipples the size of my shoulder and some blue kilt kinda like….I am not judging people by what kinda graphics they like; all I’m saying is that when it comes to graphics, it is HoN- hands down. Even though most LoL players have no graphics complaints, it still cannot compare to HoN in any way.  And for any gamer, when a game has outstanding graphics, it is a sign that you do not F*** with it.

HoN -1    LoL- 0
