5 years and this is still my favorite hero. But really, his skills need revamping. Especially his ultimate (maybe give it extra hp or longer bonus armor?)
Thanks Hon for giving fun time back day before Dota2 beta release. Maliken is one Hon original favourite heroes, I like him very much. My wild dream if this heroes ported to Dota 2 but that impossible to happen
@FenrisKakashi you know that Icefrog is an actual employee at Valve and yes - he's working only on Dota2? And LoL is made by Guinsoo, one of the guys that worked on Dota. Remember Scythe of Guinsoo? Yep, that's the item named after him in dota. Don't remember though if anyone from original Dota worked on HoN.
@tirentu It is a bug, the anti-stuck code is in the game but should only trigger when you're completely blocked off by trees or stuck on top of a cliff - it's a bug when it triggers because of an enemy or allies hero blocking you, and a huge bug at that.
"Whose name is an obvious abbreviation of Malibu Ken, Barbie's romantic interest." No, that really wasn't obvious since I never associated HoN with Barbie Dolls. But, thank you MsPudding for now making me die a little very time I choose Maliken.
Uh, don't know if this was mentioned yet but an example of the pathing bug is at 2:33. How you guys put bugs in the videos and still don't fix them, I don't know. =o
Two things, 1, one of the best skillbuilds are 1. swordthrow 2. sword of the damed 3. swordthrow 4. HELLBOURNE ZEAL 5. swordthrow 6. ulti why early zeal? if you for example get ganked then ONE level in zeal can save you as pudding mentioned for lategame, with my itembuild example will explain it. 2, For a itembuild; Steamboots Elder parasite Thunderclaw Shrunken head Charged hammer Daemonic Riftshards
@MegaChokolade Control my hero? But it's the enemy hero that cliffwalks away from me, what does that have to do with me controlling my hero? If I block someone off, which should be a sure kill, and they cliffwalk away - that's a bug.
@mdbandi120 Well the ultimate, although looks more like Terrorblade's, is actually closer to Dragon Knight's because it gives him a splash attack AND it's an ultimate. And the new Terrorblade spawns illusions along with the transformations which makes him completely different. But yeah I get what you mean the demonic transformation makes them appear very similar.
@daniel304kingkong HoN came out in May 2010 and LoL came out in October 2009..HoN was in beta before LoL and actually took some time before an official release..I am guessing somewhere around 2 years ago HoN was in Beta phase.
@jerrypower i went out of chars xD why those items? with increased attackspeed + the green sword means that you have more then 2 attacks per second + zeal WITH 17% lifesteal + 40hp/hit + magic immune. which makes him to a INSANE tank and with the SICK attackspeed + all that lifesteal then it will proc ALOT of lightnings which deals ALOT of damage, doubt it? tri it out :D
@gjoeyjoe Watch it again, repulsor is blocked by creeps which is the only way out, but he still tries to escape. So the game starts to move repulsor UP the cliff, which isn't supposed to be possible and wouldn't be without having the creeps there blocking him. Maliken kills him before he gets completely up on the cliff though.
@poopalisk dude, Maliken came out like in the very early stages of HoN, in the close beta. There's a higher possibility that it's actually shaco ripping off his ult.
@Hrothga It's not just that! Have ever tryed his recomended builds. Rylai's on Fizz? Are you kidding me? Anyway, i wish Sunsfan or Ms.Pudding couls make just one spotlight for LoL so that people can see how it's REEEALY done
Aatrox and maliken are so different... The only thing the 2 have in common is sword of the damned/blood thirst/price. I have even seen some people say aatrox ulti is a rip off, HOW? In maliken during the duration he wins a range spell like attack but in aatrox his sword grows to get more range, how that is similar i will never know...
@Thecheezgod1 no well I meant in general like the q is a throwable thing that slows on hit and Ult grant armor for a couple of seconds end stuff like that... Passive is the same and all...
@TheNexusChronus Also LoL makes it preferable for you to get more than one person on your team get kills since you dont have that mechanic where you get gold if some1 else does well so there a lot less "one for all" style play and a lot more team based playstyle. In LoL you will rarely see some`1v5 and come out with a pentakill
@tamatini The omgbbqchucknorris you're describing is probably either tryndamere or master yi. Eiter way these are exeptions and they are both countered with juking and a stun so no prob there. LoL's problem is that there are lvl 30s who still dont have a clue how to play cause the spent their levelng on easy mode with bots. Anyway as i said a while ago im not going to try to change your opinion(cause i wont). I Just think that HoN is way to similar to DotA for me to be interested
@pew0pew Yeah well they've made videos on how to stack, and this is probably to show that it can be done with a helm of domination. And just to remind everyone that constant stacking changes the game. But yeah, you need high dps and such for that amount of creeps. But you would probably farm the creeps before they reach that amount. And it's kinda bad to put it in this guide too...
@oponomo hero editor is already up dude,check out dream. but you're kinda right,they should bring those features to newerth,but this video is made by 2 persons,nigma made some guides on heroes even before he was asked by s2 to do so. i dont know how many people are working on hon but the 2 who made this vid are just making those videos and dont programm stuff.
@TheNexusChronus they called it since the begenning, they never said they were going to innovate into a brand new genre, also Icefrog worked with em, i'm not saying LoL suck and blahblahblah, its mostly that it is more for casual players. also if you r watching HoN's medias it mean that you have some interest in this game even tho you r denying.
@2Fargone4Me Benny Hill. It's a classic British comedy show that was filled with girls running around in lingere. I only saw a couple of reruns but some was still pretty funny.
![[DRIP] ‘CLIK CLAK’ PREVIEW](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/bcxkcOSbpac/mqdefault.jpg)
Good old days... Still one of my favourites Hero.
Oh god, I love watching these spotlights.
Miss u Ms. Pudding, ur awzum as hero spotlight caster.
These spotlights truly show how the hero is. Not like in lol spotlights where phreak runs around lvl 18 while all oponents are lvl 12.
5 years and this is still my favorite hero. But really, his skills need revamping. Especially his ultimate (maybe give it extra hp or longer bonus armor?)
Probably the best champion spotlight I've ever seen, for any game.
@zillareborn
np
first song is the music of level 1. and the second song is the music thats played each time you finish a level.
Thanks Hon for giving fun time back day before Dota2 beta release. Maliken is one Hon original favourite heroes, I like him very much. My wild dream if this heroes ported to Dota 2 but that impossible to happen
I'd totally use the elder parasite part as a ringtone.
i laughed so hard with the health pissed bar and the music to go with it XD
hmmm,a combination of ancient apparition and terror blade,definitely my favorite
i could listen to mspudding all day.
@GigaBoost I do believe that that is intentional to ensure that heroes dont randomly get stuck.
@FenrisKakashi
you know that Icefrog is an actual employee at Valve and yes - he's working only on Dota2? And LoL is made by Guinsoo, one of the guys that worked on Dota. Remember Scythe of Guinsoo? Yep, that's the item named after him in dota.
Don't remember though if anyone from original Dota worked on HoN.
epic intro is epic + mspudding = CANT HANDLE THE EPICNESS
When does Maliken come back to Savage2?
I keep waiting for 2years. :(
@zillareborn If I remember correctly, it's actually already music, from the first doom, done with voices instead.
Forsaken upon death: AAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!
Maliken: YOU'RE ALL BANNED
@GigaBoost
its called cliffwalking and its used as a debug. so u cant get stuck in a place and never be able to move.
@tirentu It is a bug, the anti-stuck code is in the game but should only trigger when you're completely blocked off by trees or stuck on top of a cliff - it's a bug when it triggers because of an enemy or allies hero blocking you, and a huge bug at that.
I just died on the part where they brought up the elder parasite. Da da dunah dunah da da dunah da..
"Whose name is an obvious abbreviation of Malibu Ken, Barbie's romantic interest."
No, that really wasn't obvious since I never associated HoN with Barbie Dolls. But, thank you MsPudding for now making me die a little very time I choose Maliken.
LMFAO 4:57 when he won that fight * you're all banned* THAT IS FUCKIN CLASSIC
Maliken: one of the most underrated heroes in the game
Uh, don't know if this was mentioned yet but an example of the pathing bug is at 2:33. How you guys put bugs in the videos and still don't fix them, I don't know. =o
love the start music what is it? very fun to watch them chase scout
Two things,
1, one of the best skillbuilds are
1. swordthrow
2. sword of the damed
3. swordthrow
4. HELLBOURNE ZEAL
5. swordthrow
6. ulti
why early zeal? if you for example get ganked then ONE level in zeal can save you as pudding mentioned for lategame, with my itembuild example will explain it.
2,
For a itembuild;
Steamboots
Elder parasite
Thunderclaw
Shrunken head
Charged hammer
Daemonic
Riftshards
@Crocblocked depends on your taste, everyone has different things they say is "fun". Some people like cake, some brownies and some both.
i love these videoes. keep making them!
I love the part when Bloodhunter MISS the lasthit of that creep.
@MegaChokolade Control my hero? But it's the enemy hero that cliffwalks away from me, what does that have to do with me controlling my hero?
If I block someone off, which should be a sure kill, and they cliffwalk away - that's a bug.
@TheNexusChronus
Phreak got too many classic lines and things he does to put him away. TONS of damage, do I need to say more? :D
@Skulldrunky everything reflects sunlight... and i mean EVERYTHING
lol at the intro it says by nigma/mspudding and it showed a maliken and a devourer.
i wonder which is which.
We will miss you Ms.Pudding :(
@mdbandi120 Well the ultimate, although looks more like Terrorblade's, is actually closer to Dragon Knight's because it gives him a splash attack AND it's an ultimate. And the new Terrorblade spawns illusions along with the transformations which makes him completely different. But yeah I get what you mean the demonic transformation makes them appear very similar.
@daniel304kingkong HoN came out in May 2010 and LoL came out in October 2009..HoN was in beta before LoL and actually took some time before an official release..I am guessing somewhere around 2 years ago HoN was in Beta phase.
@MoleWhack it's actually from sanity not included HoNSwebyson used the sound clip from them
@jerrypower i went out of chars xD
why those items?
with increased attackspeed + the green sword means that you have more then 2 attacks per second + zeal WITH 17% lifesteal + 40hp/hit + magic immune.
which makes him to a INSANE tank and with the SICK attackspeed + all that lifesteal then it will proc ALOT of lightnings which deals ALOT of damage,

@poopalisk dude, Maliken came out like in the very early stages of HoN, in the close beta. There's a higher possibility that it's actually shaco ripping off his ult.
Lmao, that intro was pure win.
The intros are the best !!!! LOOOOOOOL
"transforms him into a raging demon" nice Akuma shoutout ;)
@B3lmon7 It's not a pathing bug, its just blocking.
There's only one way out and the creeps are blocking it.
"you're all banned" hahahaha spot on.
They forgot to mention you can deny yourself with purple mode + sword throw if your health is low enough (very low).
Malibu Ken, now with new HAT!
Sweet voice :)
@Hrothga It's not just that! Have ever tryed his recomended builds. Rylai's on Fizz? Are you kidding me? Anyway, i wish Sunsfan or Ms.Pudding couls make just one spotlight for LoL so that people can see how it's REEEALY done

@Thecheezgod1 no well I meant in general like the q is a throwable thing that slows on hit and Ult grant armor for a couple of seconds end stuff like that... Passive is the same and all...
Did they say that "Sword of the Damned" effects "Sword Throw" ?
There were great spotlights with jokes :)
i love her voice!
Love how people are like leagues so much better when in reality they just cant handle that hon is fast paced
Something about her voice that makes it nearly impossible not to listen.
great idea from S2 right here.. use a sexy voice and walla!! every players will feel listening... S2 guys are really smart.. we love u mspudding!!!
@TheNexusChronus Also LoL makes it preferable for you to get more than one person on your team get kills since you dont have that mechanic where you get gold if some1 else does well so there a lot less "one for all" style play and a lot more team based playstyle. In LoL you will rarely see some`1v5 and come out with a pentakill
Malibu Ken, I so hope that was a lame joke. Makes me miss the Nigma guides that much more. The opening Benny Hill animation was funny, gj with that.
best guide ever
I keep watching the Elder Parasite part again and again xD
2:31
that move was sick :o
I LAUGHED LIKE HELL ON 5:00
@tamatini The omgbbqchucknorris you're describing is probably either tryndamere or master yi. Eiter way these are exeptions and they are both countered with juking and a stun so no prob there.

Anyway as i said a while ago im not going to try to change your opinion(cause i wont). I Just think that HoN is way to similar to DotA for me to be interested
"or for your casual games u could get elder parasite" tarataratar
I lol'd!!
@pew0pew Yeah well they've made videos on how to stack, and this is probably to show that it can be done with a helm of domination. And just to remind everyone that constant stacking changes the game. But yeah, you need high dps and such for that amount of creeps. But you would probably farm the creeps before they reach that amount. And it's kinda bad to put it in this guide too...
For some reason i think MSpudding's voice is hot
Benny Hill music makes everything funny!
Good vid as always, keep 'em coming!
I love how predator doesn't leap on maliken again at 3:35. Fail more.
best guide yet !
@oponomo hero editor is already up dude,check out dream.
but you're kinda right,they should bring those features to newerth,but this video is made by 2 persons,nigma made some guides on heroes even before he was asked by s2 to do so.
i dont know how many people are working on hon but the 2 who made this vid are just making those videos and dont programm stuff.
He seems like Yongdaime. Blink on his dagger. :D
epic scene with elder xD
I think Maliken should hold his sword with both hands when +dmg stance is on and not when healing stance is on.
dr repulsor ALMOST did the glitch to run uphill lol
Love the intro
Love MsPudding
Id listen to her all day ))
@TheNexusChronus they called it since the begenning, they never said they were going to innovate into a brand new genre, also Icefrog worked with em, i'm not saying LoL suck and blahblahblah, its mostly that it is more for casual players.
also if you r watching HoN's medias it mean that you have some interest in this game even tho you r denying.
they better bring back Maliclause this Christmas season :D
@shahherwan93 Only thing I have to say is that Graphics don't matter if the gameplay is fun.
i like ur guides can u make guids on playing nh plzzzzzz..... love u guys especially u mspudding lol XD plzz I will b w8ting 4 it tnx in advance
Just a question?.. What was Earlier, HoN or LoL?
@2Fargone4Me Benny Hill. It's a classic British comedy show that was filled with girls running around in lingere. I only saw a couple of reruns but some was still pretty funny.
So puck + huskar + terrorblade
Love ms Pudding's voice xD
I WANT TO DELVE INTO MSPUDDING!
"Maliken's first ability, sword through, is exactly what it sounds like"
No, that's not at all what it sounds like
Maliken guide!
@vikocho123 Combination of Dragon Knight, Puck and Huskar, I can't see how it has anything to do with Terrorblade or Ancient Apparition.
Brilliant, good job guys. :)
@TheRahkshiLord Maybe cause it's not sword "through", it's sword "throw".
i want maliken w/ hat. probably sold separately tho.
I guess this guy watched The law of Ueki...
@DisneyClassicmusic definitely both
preferably simultaneously
DU DUH DUH DUH DUHD DUH D DUDHUHDUDHUHDUHDUD
"You're all banned"
ROFL at 4:57, epic music for an epic fight!
@DisneyClassicmusic U deserve a thumbs up bro.
I want Nigma to talk again, I liked it more when he did the guides >.>
@DisneyClassicmusic but game dynamics are kind of related with graphics
2:22 pretty much fails since you can run over cliffs when you are blocked.
