But at what?

I just love seeing this spread how it has...

Really, the last thing I wanted out of this career was to be recognized and get popular, I really was doing it because I enjoyed it. Growing up I was never a popular kid, I mean I was active and did sports / hung out with friends. But I was honestly feared of being a "figure" and was one to stay in the corner at parties and not try to be the center of attention.

It was one of the biggest things I had to get used to as a result of doing what I do and I am just so humbled that my work gets recognized and things like this saying have spread across games and the scene.

The best thing that HoN can do and has done for the last year or so is differentiate itself amongst the others. It is not secret that Riot and Valve both are very successful with what they have and are very large companies, especially in comparison to S2 Games.

Initially when HoN came out, it essentially was a clone of Dota with updated graphics and interface, which is what drew a lot of people into the game initially (including myself). However with Dota 2 releasing and of course the massive success of LoL, becoming more unique and giving more reasons to play HoN over the others is what makes sense. Obviously new and unique S2 Heroes was the beginning of this, and then other things like Lock Pick and of course Midwars to make it stand out.

I will also say this stigma that HoN is "dying" or is not successful I always find interesting. HoN has been and still is a VERY successful game compared to most others, the game has been around and is still growing three years later and its concurrent players online at given times are also numbers that most other games / companies would love to have.

So again, just continue to push for unique content within the game to help attract interest of those who may not have cared to try otherwise.

As you would probably expect, AMAZING.
