Catscratch 1: A HoN Montage

Catscratch 1 is my first montage production, and the product of about 3 months of footage collection and editing. Most of the footage is from 1900+ avg MMR games, but hopefully the clips speak for themselves.

I was heavily inspired to do this by the montages made by Ravij and RuthlessVoid; however, I wanted to do it a little differently, focusing a bit on big teamwork plays rather than just solo stuff. While my editing is definitely not on their level, I think the footage contains ideas, hero builds, and playstyles you've never seen before, and it should keep you thoroughly entertained.

In order to keep the movie well paced, I didn't go into too much detail explaining many of the clips, some of which require a close look to fully understand. If a clip doesn't make any sense, or you can't tell why it is in the montage, watch it again or leave a comment and I can explain it.

I recommend watching in 720 or 1080p, or downloading via the link below:

I don't understand how tort died at 6:00. I understand that Puppet did Puppet Show or w/e is it so Aluna attacked tort, but the damage is nonlethal. Can anyone tell me?

@0314bmoore

Hey bud. You are absolutely right, puppet show damage is non-lethal. What happened was puppet show ended when aluna's attack was in the air, so the non-lethal clause no longer applied on impact, killing him. Pretty cool I thought.

Hi, nice video, where do you get the images of the heros on the side from?

[alwright2828]

@noseminer There is no real collective concept art selection for HoN, I found most of it through google images. After that, some touch ups and an opacity change in photoshop and that's about it!

sihouette pre-salvo nerf? :c

[alwright2828]

@bigbagron Sadly yes, 4sec salvo was the worst idea imaginable. A much better change would have been a nerf to the dmg on the salvo attacks, to 80% each or so. Breaking her timing combo really took a lot of the uniqueness out of the hero. Such is S2 though :)
