Heroes Evolved vs Heroes of Newerth
Heroes Evolved
Heroes Evolved is a relatively unknown MOBA game - especially in this day and age where almost every gamer know what League of Legends and DotA 2 are. However, this shouldn't discourage you from experiencing the unique gameplay that this game has to offer. Fundamentally, the concept of the game is still the same old creep-killing and tower-pushing mechanics, but the few yet significant features added make a whole lot of difference. The game also has a ton of heroes that you can collect and play as, each having their own roles to play in a match, be it as a tanker, a carry or a ganker.The best thing about Heroes Evolved is the less intense atmosphere, making it much less stressful for newcomers to experience the game and the genre without getting flamed within minutes of playing a match. Not to mention, the pace of the game is somewhat casual as well so if you can no longer afford pouring hours into LoL or DotA 2, well... this game is here for you. Though, if you want to be competitive, this game also has a couple of competitive eSports-worthy tournaments throughout the year.
We'd say that Heroes Evolved is an excellent "more casual" alternative for both avid MOBA players and even new players who are trying out the genre for the first time.
Heroes of Newerth
Heroes of Newerth is a rather decent MOBA game that caters to a group of moderately hardcore to the hardcore elite players, though it doesn’t exactly have anything that truly sets it apart from other MOBAs. The skill ceiling in this game is rather high, making it not exactly a casual or newbie-friendly game. That being said, the game has an amazing pool of 120 different heroes that are all available for you to enjoy. The game also has 2 game modes, Co-op and PvP, whereby Co-op is for the newer and trainee players while PvP are where all the experienced players go to when they play HoN. The experience point system is a nice touch and is particularly helpful for players, who love to play roles that only excel at higher levels or after getting their ultimate skills. The very useful feature of adding a player’s hero build guide in the in-game shops is pretty well-done as well! However, do be warned that players can get a bit rough with their language if you mess up a game in PvP.If you are looking for intense MOBA matches with the likes of League of Legends or DotA 2, Heroes of Newerth is definitely a game that you can try! It has been incredibly popular once and it can be once again.
