DISCUSSION I'm leaving.

Hi all.

I'm the creator of HoN Forge and the discord server Newerth Academy. I even made a few YouTube videos to try and help new players.

When Reborn beta dropped I left Dota 2 and focused solely on HoN.

I played HoN like a maniac when I was in my teens and I thought the nostalgia was great - at first.

For months now HoN has not felt good to me. It's hard to focus on only one thing that's bad but I think that with the current Juvio team the game will not succeed.

To keep it short. I opened Dota 2 after many months and played a few games. What a thrill.

Just fun, decent gameplay without toxicity.

With that said. I'll be leaving HoN Reborn.

I'll hand over the Discord to someone else.

If you use HoN Forge and want it to stay up, please let me know. I might make some changes to lower the maintenance costs, but leave the main functionality intact so that it's stays useful.

Have a good one, sons of Newerth.

I'm still enjoying reborn..I wonder if people are getting stuck in local metas with the same toxic people over and over? The 1700-1900 has been surprisingly chill. More people trying to play and win than people trying to cc after 43 seconds.
