    [Suggestion] Random by attribute

    This was implemented in DotA 6.60 and I think it's a reasonable, simple, and useful addition to the game. In DotA you can type -random to pick a random hero, which is already implemented in HoN via the random hero button. But in DotA you can also type "-random xxx" where xxx is str, agi, or int and it will guarantee you a hero with this stat as its primary attribute. You gain 100 less gold randoming this way compared to normal random, but it gives you somewhat more of an idea of what you will be getting (if your team needs a tank you can random str and start with an extra 150 gold).

    This would probably only apply to normal (AP) mode, and would be quite simple to add considering the hero selection screen is already organized by primary attribute. Simply put a random button next to each of the 3 stats.

    Thoughts?

In the distant future, when we HoN players change our patronage to a better HoN, a similar thread like this will be created and the Immigrant DotA-ians will just be an old retired ancestors who speak of legendary forgotten heroes who prosper in an era of DotA....

    Yeah, this would be great. Once 3 people on my team randomed and we all got agi carries... in addition to the 2 glass cannons that were already picked by the people who didn't random. Needless to say, it would have been nice if we'd randomed str or int.

    agreed, but maybe reduce the random gold advantage by a little for that.
