Well folks, it's been a week's time , and the results are in: SW4Y1N, Caecus, MassCreed, revanxp, Nyoron, smalltrouble, Gilgafish, kestrel150, Godunderscor and Felverick are the ten lucky winners of a free copy of Heroes of Newerth, and will be contacted shortly. Thanks to everyone who entered, and made my Friday afternoon that much funnier! But what if you want to know why these people won? What was their concept that amused me so? There's only one way to find out. Read on to delve into the visions of madmen—or are they geniuses?
SW4Y1N says:
Lucas says: I've somehow been accused in the PC Gamer office of being a furry by fellow intern Anthony Valva. It's not true, I tell you. Giving props for feminine, anthropomorphic ponies certainly won't help my case.
Caecus says:
I´d like to see a "Giant Squirrel" Keeper skin. It could set small squirrels as eyes on trees, summon some to attach leaves to allied units rendering them invis near a tree, using other squirrels as support(like sitting on allied units shoulders) and as its ultimate, a huge amount of squirrels appears jumping on enemys biting them and holding them down. As its sound squealing would be recommended.
Lucas says: If Logan played HoN, this would be his avatar of choice. And that ultimate sounds like the worst way to go.
MassCreed says:
Lucas says: What is this I don't even
revanxp says:
Lucas says: It's Friday. Friday. Gotta multi-cast on Friday. While many attempted the fabled Rebecca Black joke, only revanxp saw the connection between the infamous pop sensation and one of HoN's troll-iest heroes, complete with a fitting name.
smalltrouble says:
Lucas says: Who is this man? What's his motivation? How could this man ever be defined as a "hero?" I need to know this man's story.
Gilgafish says:
Some of his catch phrases include:
My mustache is ironic.
I'm vegan now.
Swords are too mainstream. I prefer magnets.
I got this hat at Goodwill for $1.00.
Toy Story 2 was okay.
I fight with magnets. Bitches love magnets.
Trust me, I'm a doctor.
Lucas says: It seems that mocking hipsters is now hip. How do you like them apples?
kestrel150 says:
Dark Astley
Attack 1: Always gonna give you up- Dark Astley gives up a team mate to the enemy, and gains a Damage boost from doing so
Attack 2: Always gonna let you down- Dark Astley fires into the air with an enemy, then lets go of them and dances in the air, doing 125% Damage and gaining a...speed...boost?
Attack 3: Always gonna run around and Desert you- Dark Astley changes team for a round, and gains all their bonuses
Attack 4: Always gonna tell a lie and hurt you- Dark Astley whispers to the enemy that untold riches lie over a hill nearby. the enemy walks over the hill and sees a person, who says: "IM A FIRING MA LASERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" doing 250% damage to the enemy, and stunning them in surprise for 3 rounds
Lucas says: That third ability is actually ingenious. Switching sides to grief your new "allies" for a short time? S2, make that happen!
Nyoron says:
His weapon of choice is martial arts and his ulti is a claw on a chain with unlimited range and drags the target towards Betty. Betty then tells the target a joke before it's inevitable death. "First a joke. What do you get when you cross an owl with a bungie cord? ... my ass! nyeheahehehe." Then he cuts off their big toe and kills you.
Lucas says: How it warms my heart to see someone else appreciating the much-despised Kung Pow: Enter the First. Tiger. Tiger. Birdie.
Godunderscor says:
Lucas says: Pingas!
Felverick says:
Lucas says: My personal favorite. If this hero were in HoN, I would play as him every day.
Thanks again to everyone who entered. Even if you didn't win, you can still play HoN for free until Sunday night! If you haven't tried it yet, now's the perfect time.
