Default HA - Build Directory

Is there a directory (Someone else's post) of ALL the builds ever run in HA? I was observing today, and I realized how far we have come.. Starting from the mere pre-IWAY builds, and NR/Tranq Pressure, to the Dual Migraine Meta these days... (Obviously Zergway also etc...)

Post link if U have it please? (Don't mention PvX, I mean a Real directory, with ALL builds, not only 1000 different versions of IWAY)

If no-one took the time to create such a thread, I am happy to start one. Have a dateline, with ALL the builds ever recorded in HA-history (That were somewhat popular).

Grtz

Ether Renewal abuse, "Dual Smite".

EoE bomb, there was always atleast 1 in burial mounds when it was 6-way.

Minion factory.

I remember playing KD/AS warrior a few times in grab 'n' go teams, but i dont think there was any specific build that used them.

Are you gonna include all the bug builds like Thunderclap/Signet of Might/Sand Shards which only lasted between 2hrs and a week?

Taking these replies, I gues no-one ever took the time to carefully write down all the builds since beginning of HA

Can U guys post Shack links? So I can start making the list...
And I know this might be hard, but dates of creation would be excellent. This would bring more understanding to how meta has evolved

Takida, you don't even play the game. So you posting this was a waste of time, and me replying to you was a waste of time.

You replying saying I wasted my time while you wasted my time is probably going to waste your time.

Double Gank PvP weekend

You and your friends can enjoy a double dose of ganking in HA and GvG this weekend! Whenever you take part in an HoH match you get double the amount of flames in local chat and through private messaging after you gank the winning team or a team you dislike. The fun doesnt end there either! If you gank an enemy team with no intention of playing to win you get the ''aura of the ganker'' bonus which grants 10% morale boost every 30 seconds and all your party members move 25% faster, attack 25% faster and cast 25%... while affected by this aura you cannot be ressurected.

In GvG matches Guild lord dmg resistance starts from VoD-like levels and increases as the match goes on instead of how it normally works. All NPCs in bases are removed including the bodyguard and knights, party members inside an opposing parties base gains the ''aura of the ganker'' bonus as mentioned above. Normal end of match messages will be replaced with a ''You got Ganked... DOH!'' or a ''You lame Ganker! Learn2Play!'' if any such ganking occurs.

Oh and there's double fame and champ points to really mess things up for the weekend. Have fun!
