Heroes of Newerth vs Valorant
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.
Valorant
Valorant is, to put it simply, the "baby" of Counter-Strike and Apex Legends. The game is a tactical 5v5 team-based first-person shooter where you get to play as one of the game’s many agents, each with their own skills and abilities. You’ll go in with your team and fight in well-crafted maps in two rounds consisting of the gameplay loop of planting a bomb to destroy two objective points and preventing the other team from doing so. The game has robust leaderboards and ranking systems. Rise through the ranks with your team, start getting wins, and put your name on top of the leaderboard.In Valorant, you’ll be able to take control of one of its agents per game, ranging from Sova the Russian Scout, Viper the chemist, and Breach. The agents have a unique array of abilities and roles, ranging from the attack-oriented Duelist, the disruptive Initiator, and the supportive Sentinel. Moreover, no FPS is complete without guns, and you will be able to use a wide range of weapons from shotguns to assault rifles and snipers. And yes, you’ll be able to buy weapons like Counter-Strike, and use skills and abilities like in Apex Legends.
Overall, Valorant is a must-play if you’re looking for an action-packed competitive FPS. It’s a great game to play with friends and is another masterpiece by Riot games.
