I played a lot of Bane back in the day. That hero was a fucking asshole, especially with Necronomicon. Somehow Heroes of Newerth's Succubus (its Bane clone from back when they were just 100% porting DotA heroes) always felt better to play though. I think it had to do with animation times and turn times, but Succubus was much more comfortable, esp. if you wanted to try playing carry style.

There's a "fan server" (does it even count as a fan server when they seem to have original HoN devs and are working on some kind of official HoN remake?) that is still quite active:

This guy is such a fucking faggot. I fucking hate quitters. Quitters are a consequence of cowardly retards who don't know how to regroup and make a comeback when the enemy is ahead. It's a consequence of people being unable to deviate their builds. If I'm falling behind in DotA as a regular damage carry, I stop aiming for expensive 4K+ gold items and start buying dirt cheap cost-effective items to bridge the gap and start hammering the enemy team. Once I get a few kills including an enemy carry kill under my belt, I can recover just fine. I've done a lot of comebacks so the whole "game is lost" mentality just grates on me. Hell I've helped teammates recover from a bad position because I needed them to do good for our team to win.
Probably my best and most ridiculous loss ever came from quitters around 6.84 patch. I was playing Necrolyte and my team was doing bad and they declared that the game was lost. I said "wtf we are winning just hold out a moment and we've got this" since I was buying the item that would make my build ridiculous (Octarine Core) but they just said "no man this game is lost" so they just called it quits and let enemy team collect
fucking megacreeps and then decided to sell all items, waste it on wards, and fountainhug until the game was over. I then proceeded to 1v5
the entire enemy team plus 3 lanes of megacreeps as Necrolyte and dragged out that loss for
a full half hour after they had megas because my build was that ridiculous. It honestly made me wish for LoL-style regenerating rax because the fact that I was stuck doing base defense meant that I couldn't push at all and needed to D.
