Well, the old version of HON LAN that you tested is a whole other thing than what we have right now.
If you think those heroes like Boom, Altair, Demic, Ice Titan are good then you will be impresed about our version!
In fact Boom and Demic are a copy of ours with models from Savage but we now use the same models, ours are constantly balanced thou!
Wait for my Stand Alone 1.3.3 Dota Heroes version and you will see, HON Extreme does not even compare!
And you can play Sordit's HON LAN in tunggle or Hamachi with lots of people =)
Beware... you won't be able to go back to HON:E.
