Hey guys,

I wanted to send out a note to say Happy Easter. I hope it is as beautiful a day where you are as it is here (warmer and sunny finally!).

I also wanted to send out a quick update. We have 158 fans as of the time I'm sending this message. That just won't do. This page has been online for almost a week. I want to hit 1000 fans!!! Help us out, take some extra time and spread the word to help us hit that first milestone.

You can entice them by letting them know we're going to post an exclusive video update to fans only in a couple weeks.

Thanks,

And look at you now! Bring a tear in my eye! 311k fans, that couldn't been done w/o !

Share your memorable memories of young HoN! For an example, how you got introduced to the game? When did you picked Blacksmith for the very first time!?

[[SOCK]stronK]

Nothing

I did like Nome's guides though

and inb4 it's spelled nostalgia

[whistle]

I miss Krak's drench, twas fun

[InsaneChef]

i joined and picked ophelia

someone told me it was chen and hons micro sucked

i cried.

[[Sav2]Qwernakus]

I miss back when Defiler was OP, arachna was OP, when buildings could be lifestealed and when Predator didnt have stone skin...

[InsaneChef]

i dont remember that

did you join earlier than your join date?

[Maliwan]

Nostalgia is a choice, fascist

[FulgoreSama]

I remember my first hero choice.

War Beast as a beginner. Bad idea

[LolMaliken]

^ i picked devourer. my last move of the game? pulling someone into the fountain with me. super win

[Imbisill]

I remember how hard I sucked my first games. Oh jolly good times, I picked warbeast first game I think. My strat was letting my summons kill the enemies. Needless to say, I failed. I don't remember getting flamed though, maybe the community was better back in september.

Edit: I also remember not understanding jack **** of the terms in game, I was like: What does miss mean? What is carry? I wonder how I managed to actually bother to learn this game. Either way, I'm happy I did. Oh and also, people using DotA terms didn't make it easier getting into this game. How the f*ck am I supposed to now devourer is called pudge?

[whistle]

My first pick was Electrician in a 1v1 game, no idea what I was thinking

[[IVV]Rinsaku]

My very first game on HoN was torturer and I found out he was leshrac and was kinda upset. Then I got stuck mid solo. Then I went like 4-0. So wasn't all that bad =P

Started in summer 2009 when one of my gaming sites said beta keys were given away on Facebook.

First character played (and fav. character) Moon Queen

Played Blacksmith for the first time 2 weeks ago... (shame on me!)

[Tyrando]

I started like all the cool kids, playing scout 24-7, old scout was overpowered tho, i remember 53-2

[[FLFY]Sai]

I started out my first game going 12-2 with swiftblade...solo mid. rofl

then the enemy moonqueen raped me, I had no idea what items were what and she got a lot of farm.

next game i raped as swift and won :3

fun fun

Altho i never played DoTA before HoN, it took me like 2 days to figure out the basics, before that it was kicked, kicked, kicked and countless spam of me being called a retard And my rl friend told me to play Swiftblade but the hero seemed too gay for my taste so i went with Scout (lol?)

[[BETA]Warchamp7]

My first game of HoN ever I played Swiftblade and I went 20 - 3
