Heroes of Newerth might be looking to seeing something much more exciting happening soon! Read on to find out more on what we can expect!

Hello! My name is Robert "Kros" Cherry, and I'm the Technical Producer for Heroes of Newerth. I've been playing HoN for a long time now, and one of the things I do with any game that I play for any serious length of time is theorycraft. I'd like to share some of that theorycrafting with you guys today.

Imagine a mode that starts off with each player picking three heroes. You decide to pick your favorite heroes: Solstice first, then Predator, and of course Monarch.
You enter the game, and it’s not quite the HoN you'd expect; your abilities have been randomly generated from the 30 heroes chosen by all of the players!

So, with your crazy abilities in tow, you head off to your lane. There you are, carefully last-hitting, when suddenly Martyr throws an Amun-Ra stun at you. Good thing your Bubbles lane partner has Accursed's Shield! Unfortunately, Legionnaire pops out of the jungle as Minotaur (that he's stricken with Parasite's Infest) and catches you before you can get back. Luckily, you respawn very quickly, and haven't lost any gold. You also notice you have a whole new set of abilities!

This mode is chaotic, this mode is action packed, and it’s incredibly fun. I know this because we've been play testing it internally for a while now.


We would love to hear what you guys might think about a mode like this, so please leave some comments on the forums here: http://forum.hon.garena.com/showthread.php?43807-Blog-Post-Discussion-Imagine-a-mode...
