Hero Spotlight: Parasite

[@austinprince2109]

i will admit the spotlights for HON are a bit better than lol

[@ethhics]

austin prince yes yes. Dota spotlights are also cool

[@James_Apk]

Haha, the tables have turned I guess

[@jmnemy]

this is the most aesthetically appealing hero spotlight ive ever seen!

[@amcsdmi]

These videos have gotten so much better with Smyger! SMYGER IS THE MAN!!

[@IvyClora]

These intros keep getting better and better.

[@Dyl482]

0:28 lol him chasing down that hellbringer, that was spotlight material?

[@XilaHouseRecords]

@Hjerpe88 their is departements, in s2, Maintenance and fixing stuff is far from designer jobs

[@kaibeanss]

@LookyPeter you should've read the red text below the scene in which kong was infested

[@tryllealf]

@MannMitKot i think there was a contest about alt avatars and leprechaun blacksmith did pretty good so most liely yes

[@Algorondrugz]

I love how scout dies in every spotlight XD

[@BttClass]

@Elunayme Correct, he's godly once you have codex or hellflower.

[@markasc14]

@OkamiSojirou magmus' steam bath has 0s fade time i think.. but i guess you can take valks prism

[@Palmen1990]

wow this hero seems really fun to play. especially in the early since he can gank so easily

[@savagekruger77]

Yes, this dude was almost always in the meta up until HoN's end.

[@MrPrajitura]

@@savagekruger77insta pick or insta ban 🤣🤣

[@afalzon]

When it sai "prepare to be infested" and the word infested flickered, did anyone else rewind it to make sure it said infested all along?

[@BttClass]

@Ranaki His job is to keep underfarmed support heroes low level, and to pick off carries before they do too much damage in teamfights. Not to mention he has a slow (to help team chase) and a silence (to shut down casters or channeling spells). He does just as much as deadwood in a teamfight.

[@Marlas009]

u guys getting better with each video, well done!

[@Elunayme]

@FlamebaitV3 Played him for quite some games now. He is not that imbalanced, considering he has no way to stun. His gank potential depend heavily on the orange creep spot closest to the sidelane. If you invest heavy into Infest, you may get unlucky... And theres always encounters where no creep is close. Then infest is sadly useless. Most of the time though, he can't do much until he got his items. It's like with every forest hero, he needs 20 minutes to get ready, maybe more.

[@Flebeb]

@LucaVerciani lol i know. me and my friends were goin kamakaze with the spellboxes.

[@hoylguy11]

@ZaCoder you can test it by yourself creating a pratice match and test it up

[@TimIsHappy]

@Urmezawa That's his point... He quoted someone else and said they are in different teams.

[@ThorBangProduktion]

@DucAtHome well, if you read the Red label at bottom of screan u could see it says: CAUTION: ONLY S2 CAN INFEST KONGOR! But it would be very funny if you could i admit ^^

[@Alkirra]

@Lennart50 He only steals buffs that's are green, and passes debuff's with his ulti. SoulStealers ulti is a not a buff or a changeling spell, it's a spell with just a long casting time. Parasite also can't steal in aura's.

[@SilverWingxD]

@Zexionlol yeah i thought that too but more like "Not idea but there is a noob in the forest ... not pounce on night hound"

[@solarflare22]

@Ryodakun Actually IIRC people thought that Sil would be useless and too complicated for her own good until they played her and realized how good she was. People thought Ra would be OP, but he's not (his passive was only OP because of a bug which caused it to deal true damage instead of magic, which has been since fixed). Not sure how Parasite will be, I guess we'll have to wait until tomorrow.

[@sooooooooDark]

@2legit2quit67 there already was one but it was just a little one - from 2.0.35.1 to 2.0.35.2 or so

[@Clone56]

@LookyPeter did u not watch the video numb, it sfaid only S2 can which means WE cant

[@_LoDE]

@Speccor Looks more like Maokai with the single gigantic arm imo

[@OkamiSojirou]

Hmm.. so.. im thinking.. You can buffsteal Magmus' steam bath and/or Valkyrie's Prism?

[@DexDestroyer]

I claim copyright of that voice for Pebbles.

[@Megawhites2]

@LunaFiTinG you don't buy it in the store....you go to their website and purchase an account directly from it. afterwards, you just download the client, install then play.

[@SirMonsterSlayer]

Wow really cool hero =) Probably one of my new most played hehe :D The new s2 heroes are really great, thanks !

[@s21411]

If u get abyssal skull, Refreshing ornament and other hp regen items on the vagabond king with his hp regen aura u can last like 3 mins inside it

[@BttClass]

@Ranaki I thought he was pretty bad too, but you've gotta try him out with different items before you judge him. I mean yea he's not a GREAT hero, far from OP. And yes, codex IS core on him. Once you get the hang of him, you'll learn that his passive skill is where he shines. One auto attack, his ult, his first spell once or twice and a level 5 codex is over 2000 damage. Also, I think you mean "lose button."

[@swilly78]

Haha, these vids get more awesome each time. Once again, nice work S2!

[@Urmezawa]

@TheDisturbed0ne1 Yeah but problem with RA is he needs again huge farm to be any usefull for initating. And its more a tank initation like armadon/kraken. Than anything like a strong counter initater like behe / magmus. Yeah aluna imo was last really good hero they implemented. I think silluette was nice they implemented another usefull range carry other than flint and SS or puppet. Specially after her nerf.

[@Hav0c91]

Being able to swap Jera's ulti even when he has magic immunity seems a bit silly to me. Guess we'll just have to wait and see how it works.

[@dollsage]

@trevarfran I knw, my first impression was that and they gave him a humanoid body, but I am sure of it that he is based off an existing old concept art of slither. :o

[@srik241]

can tell already that this hero is epically OP

[@Juggern4ut20]

@airpok It appears to be an Int hero actually.

[@coolcoollo]

@VirtualAidz He's actually not that op. Damage numbers are significantly high for any of his skills, just just does really well against debuff based heroes like slither or dsham/glacius.

[@kartofawe]

One of the best heros s2 made the last few months

[@Aegisknight80]

These were the days where epic hon spotlight openings existed.

[@TheDisturbed0ne1]

@Urmezawa I think Ra was an attempt to add another initiation hero into the game, although, he's really crappy. I guess that Aluna was the latest aggresive int hero to come, but I'm all on your side! Another hero to have the ability of replace Behe or Magmus would rock, just as well as having an aggressive aoe int guy! :)

[@OkamiSojirou]

Of course it's possible to play both :D No one is restricted to one game. Both are fun and it's up to player preference. I enjoy both styles, so yeah :)

[@xtuffguyx]

@Hjerpe88 You think the server guys aren't testing out the new heroes for fun?

[@LDreamerDude]

@Psykoglory Thats the flamboyant pack..

[@Pantaroons]

These outros keep getting better and better. NARHNAGHARGHA NOOB IN THE FOREST ARGAGHAHNRG

[@SEnergyable]

@dnbAlexi Haven't played LoL for a long time, but I remember it have more stabile servers and they have longer uptime than HoN's servers

[@OkamiSojirou]

@nimkal There's bound to be more than one mind that thought of that ulti and more than one game with it.

[@trevarfran]

@dollsage I think Tremble's alt skin has the same face as this guy.

[@SharinganUser4tw]

@OkamiSojirou that's the counter for every intelct hero....

[@TheDisturbed0ne1]

@si2foo How long is the buff up though? Don't you think it's easily countered by putting a single stun on him? The venom only affects one enemy, so it's not OP at all, as that person will most likely be protected. the ULT though seems pretty nice, and the infest seems to have lots of possibilities! :) On a first look, I'd consider him pretty balanced :)

[@tweber93]

@BttClass which takes us back to: He's a good 1 vs 1 hero yes. But does not suite for teamfights and a game where teamplay is important.

[@xxKandels]

Goblin: "Do you know who ordered the codex as the first item?" Pebbles: "Blah,blah, theres a noob in the forest." I like S2 more and more. :-D

[@kumlanfredrik]

@g3orgios dont u think that it is different people working on new heros and diffrent people working on fixing server maby?

[@dollsage]

Parasite's skills are cool and all, but is it me does his model look familiar? I once saw an Old Slither Concept art who looked like Parasite, the face, the cannon arm, and those spores around his body. I guess they actually did revive that old concept art, which to me is cool.

[@gilianjansen8569]

@NotNamedName why you fall for the trap of the troll?

[@SourceBTS]

MS Pudding do you mind if we get Nigma to do the voice in just one spotlight? I miss him!

[@Wingen1337]

@Fowskii So you base your decision on thing that actually does not have anything with detalis of the champion you watching?

[@sooooooooDark]

wow that shop i hope that means a change about that observery shop thing at least they should add rev wards dust and tps scrolls (and probably eye)

[@SilverWingxD]

What do you guys think about what is Pebbles trying to say?

[@vvav]

@poopalisk Because a move that does damage and slows a single target is so original. Oh wait, DotA had one of those. No wait, more like a hundred of them.

[@jhont-8006]

best year hon!

[@Aykhan147]

@frederik164 omg *sigh* you did bring it up and the lack of smileys means that you are feeling pwnd.

[@XilaHouseRecords]

why doew it kill scout evrytime....

[@Elunayme]

@Psykoglory Not, that's the flamboyant pack.

[@NoNameForUser]

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

[@OkamiSojirou]

@SharinganUser4tw Precisely. Hence, is it really that OP?

[@si2foo]

@TheDisturbed0ne1 yh but think of it this way how many characters have stuns ans it means your stuner has to stun him and not anyone else the parasite ability is rediculous you hide in a creep he just gains so much movement speed and has a leap ability he is gunna be a op hero i mean look at keeper the rework he runs 512 when running near trees this hero is gunna be rediculous he is gunna be a all out attack hero like ra where you have to have a pair of balls to play him well but that is it

[@warrust]

I want to see how many people stuff up when facing this guy because they don't know what his ulti does

[@taken200]

only S2 members can infest kongor what mean?

[@Dangle24]

The buff/debuff moving ult thingy does it also work on BH ult and slither ult?

[@vESTINMIXIFY]

What happenens if you use it's ulti on Night Hound? :P

[@Rodmusset]

@abisz46 The trailers are not cinematic but ingame umad?

[@afmanalac11]

Looks like an op hero from this spotlight. Let's see him ig.

[@jatingjaholdstill79]

How I missed this game.

[@tweber93]

Ok, he can exchange vj's cursed ground and get wildsouls wild and corrupted deciples ultimate?

[@how3owl]

@CLvanCetra obviously members of S2, yknow, the company that made the game? like, the developers?

[@JoK3r016]

@S2Games what hero is that on 2:36 ? the one with the gun.

[@Shapririon]

when does that alt of blacksmith come out?

[@OsomoMojoFreak]

@ColorMyGameboy You do realize its two separate teams that designs/code heroes and handle servers right? Oh and champions, either got trolled or a loler, yay.

[@ragalin1]

is his ultimate a skillshot or a single target? i would prefer the skillshot

[@jamesl9]

8 years ago!

[@Schnupfndrache7]

start: ring of the teacher +2x mana pot >Steamboots>codex>abysis skull> codex upgrade> asassins shroud> null stone and dont know the attack modifyer yet, or maybe behe heat to get more tanky` what do u think about this build?

[@ThePraetorFenix]

No one told me Quadropod Tremble had a spare head and gave it to his brother.

[@OkamiSojirou]

@DeWarp10 It's not OP. We just haven't found a counter for it, oh wait.. Null stone and hellflower.

[@LiiRAE.]

Can parasite steal soulstealers ult? If he can, how? after its done or while charging?

[@2g1rls1cup]

@DarksorrowTwink You must be Sherlok Holmes

[@how3owl]

please make a custom game where you have to deliver packages as goblin courier

[@Knux209]

I've been playing LoL for a while now. I want to know if this is worth getting/playing. Give me you opinoins on which one is better at what.

[@ahmadhafis118]

But Why Parasite Cannot Control, Konggor Again ? This year

[@thkj1605]

Ahmad Hafis S2 Member only !

[@neuman7]

can facehug steal predator stone form buff?

[@Xalrentaru]

One of my favourite things about LoL is that it is nowhere NEAR as tryhard and serious as LoL, HoN is way more laid back and enjoyable

[@chubysnow]

@yocamtisoy An employee of the company that makes HoN.

[@mah9boi]

DAMMIT I WANT TO BECOME AN S2 MEMBER NOW

[@niggy730]

@lakostal Lycan is war beast?

[@warrust]

@Alandar565 I doubt either Nigma or Sweby knows how to fix servers

[@TheDisturbed0ne1]

@Elleniceone The only heroes of any use in the last few patches has been: Aluna, Sil and Nomad. Martyr is OK, but none of the others have even been close of OP :P (Gotta say that it's fairly OK to call Sil OP before nerf though, as she now is pretty balanced!) Heroes like HB, TB, SS, Magmus, Pharao, Tort, and lot's of more are mostly way better to use! :)

[@iliketurtles795]

i thought blacksmith alt avatar got psotponed to next week?

[@gmn92]

@melenkurio guess the gignat only s2 members can do this wasnt enough...

[@iMLGzus]

@dreadlord011 If you read what it says on-screen, "only S2 members can infest Kongor," you would realize your statement was false. Just FYI.
