@SM-Count On weekends I get on at around 2am GMT and stay on all day until around 2pm GMT. Obviously, I'm not playing all day (especially if I go out :p), I take breaks, but I try have hon open so message me if you see me online. Sometimes I stay up and play Hon, but I try avoid that because of school.

@-Evan On my new account I'm only playing MM. I'm at low 1500 haven't really progressed due to loosing so many games due to leavers and fail teams. Most games I pick up a semi carry/ganker and go mid I have some sort of success. I often have much less success with hard carries/support/tanks, overall (though there are rare exceptions where I get decent teammates and we mop the other team). From now on I am going to play exclusively semi carry/ganker and try get mid solo in pubs. :p Oh and getting some wards is a great idea, thanks for the suggestion. Most of the time I get the courier (since no one else wants to ever buy one.), so getting a few wards can't hurt that much. XD

Is there a HoN mod site? The ones on google haven't been updated for over a year.

Read this sticky, It will tell you everything about mod and how to use HoNmod (Software used to manage mods).

I'm not sure but Chipper's ultimate can slow, while Bombardier not.
Chipper -------------------------------------------------- l Bombardier
Missiles (up to 3 without cd)------------------------- l Triggered bomb
Slow (some kind of ink)------------------------------- l Slow with damage (bomb shower)
Magic Shield -------------------------------------------- l I'm not quite sure about bomb's 3rd skill
ultimate: saws that can slow if you get through- l ultimate: linear bomb drop but can't slow

In other words, Chippers is a supportive hero whose do decent linear damage (missiles and ulti) while Bombardier is more a massive attack (shower bomb, triggered bomb and linear ulti).

I think

[SM-Count]

I've been getting mana tube on chipper when I'm not mid with bottle, his missles fly so far, you can sit back and just fire missles all day.

[Mirosuke]

Won my first randomed game (although it was AP) in ages with Tundra. 12/1

[SM-Count]

yeah, one of the most annoying things about chipper is that he can't aoe farm that well and can't farm jungle creeps. Though the upside is he can snipe people through the jungle

[Mirosuke]

And, it is me or Bombardier ultimate is universal?

[HughGRection]

Pretty sure it just has really good range. Remember when one ganked us and I was like wtf...bombs out of nowhere isn't this guy mid and then about 10 seconds later he appeared out of the jungle

[Skyve]

Yeah it's global. It's an air strike afterall.

[HughGRection]

yea but air strikes can have range xD

[SM-Count]

hm... so how am I supposed to get 4 bomb dust on someone without getting in range of stuns and shit?

[Skyve]

Master of Arms looks sick.

Btw guys, check my game Starring Valkyrie
A 3vs5 game (I was on the 3 side)
Match ID: 55781863

You might check -> 13:, 10:, 24:, 59: are some highlights of the game.

[SM-Count]

So I don't level slow at all? Seems like I don't have enough mana.

yeah max your bomb and boom dust first

Upcoming hero: Rhapsody

[SM-Count]

Bomb is so Farking hard to play when you're laggin, I must've missed every skill shot and still got loads of kills. I can see why he's so strong now, he's kinda funny, you have bomb + 4 bomb dusts on someone and they fight you since they see you at lower health than them then they explode, low level is fun but I gotta get out of this terrible PCR, just gotta learn more champs.

[Miguez]

Guys add me, MrLodidodi, I'll help anyone who needs. I added inTide and accidentally rejected chinchilla.

[Mirosuke]

OMG I LOVE RAPHSODY <33
I think I am going to master her

[Love]

She feels pretty strong, I think she has high tier potential.

How do you play nomad? He feels so weak unless I rice 4 items.

How do you play nomad? He feels so weak unless I rice 4 items.

What I do in the beginning is harass a lot with my charge-invis spell (forgot the name) since it does a lot of damage for a relatively small amount of mana imo. Later on in the game, you want to gank heroes by first using your charge ability (the one where you actually run up to them) and after you attack them around two times, it has been my experience that they auto-attack you at least once before taking some sort of action (running back, using a spell, etc). It's right before this attack response of theirs that you want to activate your ult which damages them even more and stuns them once their attack you. Then after that, they should be easy prey with a few more hits and another one of your charge abilities once it cools down.

This is all of course relative to how the game has been going for you and as always, this works best with squishy heroes until you get your items and what not.

Last hitting. That's it. he's a carrier yo.

[CrimsonNuker]

Bromad <3

[MasterKojito]

Nomad is the easiest hero to play, really op.

[Skyve]

Madman?
Nomad.

[MasterKojito]

Just as I say nomad is easy, I get stomped by a smurf XD

He seems like a really shitty carry compared to the other carries. I just farmed a 35 min frostwolf and that was the most boring game I've every played, he seems like he'd be really fun to play with his skills.

Also, all the rec builds are tank builds.
