the name sounds like a generic p2w, and i'm inclined to treat it as such
too lazy to even check it out tho
It's made by tencent which owns League of Legends
Essentially they took everything about dota, removed all the annoying stuff.. made it WAY FASTER...
It's like, Drinking alcohol (League), Vs Crack cocaine (Honor of Kings).
You can't check it out yet, I believe there was a european beta release, but you'd want to wait for the American Release unless you don't care if the progress not being ported (don't know if it will be from other region accounts).
I am currently playing the original China version.
Overall, Same people who made LOL, so if you like LOL, you'll like HOK..
It's not P2W from what I can tell..
