What Heroes do you love to play?
My all time favorite to play is probably Pharaoh. He might not get a lot of kills by himself but he is so amazing for ganking and initiating. Tormented Soul is also awesome if you are good at it and can score some kills when people run back to spawn. His ult can also be really fun when you shoot it into the fog and have to guess where the enemy is.
Recently I've been playing Blood Hunter alot. I love his speed boost when people get low and the minimap reveal. I also love how easy it is to farm when you get healed by last hits, you can just last hit through harassment if you are good enough. It's also hilarious to hemo noobs and watch them sprint away.
Pebbles is also fun to play with his toss. It's always hilarious to pull off a stun/chuck combo on people who are chasing you and kill them both.
Support heroes like Demented and Jereziah are also pretty fun to play if you have a good team that actually pushes.

Plus if I didn't we would only lose. Aza and wiadro would have such bad stats if I wasn't around to save them all the time.
Also, tablet of command is the best item in the game.
e: Demented Supportman is pretty fun but what is more fun is rushing shieldbreaker/hellflower/frostwolf and carrying with him.
I also prefer heroes that take some degree of skill to play. It might be satisfying to run around as plague rider and ulti people all day and get hat tricks and quad kills, but I think it's alot more satisfying to outplay someone.
But yeah I get what you're saying. Winning because you farmed more items is not a lot of fun, winning by outplaying your opponents is. Current DotA/HoN competitive metagame seems to be turtle&farm which kind of sucks. People will die 10 times over before they let the carry die... Ganking/roaming really needs to be made a more viable strategy.
This is why I liked playing Shadowpriest, because there was no rotation, it was more based on priorities depending on your position/damage/crit/etc. It's true for all other classes I've played though. Ret paladins are even more boring in PvE since they go by a first come first serve rotation. Carries are indeed pretty boring in HoN though, the only carry I like playing is Madman, and of course, ARMADON. Getting CHAMPION OF NEWERTH on Armadon was the best thing that has ever happened to me, we've been inseparable ever since.
but its like ur just wanna win then host a fucking 3v3/2v2 then fucking autopick pestilence and let them concendeat 15:00
for example playing against a scout or nighthound forces you to buy dust/eye, haven't heard any complaints about that
Night Hound (18-1 my 2nd game with him)
Soulstealer
Only took the other team to get to level 24-25 to decide to get the gem and end my killing spree :XDDDD
i like to play pesti or electrician =9
1- magebane
2- corrupted
3- demented shaman
i usualy play random hero :o!
favourite stun: puppet, great early game imho if you control the whiplash crits. puppet show makes him an ok initiator if he has the backup.
favourite carry: madman / plaguerider. Plaguerider when the server is full of retards or when you got some nice stunners like kraken / pebbles / hammer in your team :)
favourite tank: mmm, hammerstorm / pebbles. mm :) Pebbles throw skill is teh pwn, though hammerstorms ulti is awesome also :p I should try playing him with a bottle and get a DD :)
You are wrong
just madman is carry, and a shit carry
kraken is not stuner -. -
I really dont mind playing vs plague, he needs at least two hits and unless you got mongols in your team running after you instead of spreading out is ok to counter. So yeah, I totally agree with you. He's far from a ganker but he still owns on pub :p Kinda like soulstealer + shroud on a pub :p
ok, its not succubus but puppetshow is a great initiating stun which also silences and you can combo it with the hold which ofc isnt a real stun, but its pretty effective nevertheless.
e: well at least thats my opinion :P
Edit: Well, he's kinda comparable to Sand Wraith, since they're both shit without items. Stop their farm, and they won't be able to do much.

hello <3 :D:D
Start out mid, cloak, barrelroll and own. Repeat as much times as needed till the other guy decides to give you freefarm at mid :)
Battle Nymphora (Harkon's Blade, Hellflower)
Legionnaire
Slither
Madman
I like supports also like tempest, pebbles, hammerstorm, keeper of the forest, defiler, puppet, kraken and pestilence ( some are not always just supports :))
I don't know where to put Blacksmith, he is so sick with his multicasts and hp.
There are many, because it's quite boring playing same hero over and over again. But I random a lot aswell.
Haven't tried out any others (except for maybe 1 game where I got rolled by skilled)
2.Predator
3.Chronos
4.Devourer
