BONUS!
HoN Patch Theme Song:
Now, this is a story all about howBreak it down!
This game got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how we balanced the game and made it so fair
Near bot lane-n-jungle, he sat and gazed
At the full lane was where he spent most of his days
Chillin' out hittin' denyin' all cool
And sendin' all the kids back to the pool
When a couple of guys, who were up to no good
Startin' making trouble in his neighborhood
He lost one big fight and raged everywhere
Then demanded we all make the game way more fair!
Y'all said we're so bad and had all this fear
That no change would be fresh since we won't do a mirror
If anything you said that such a patch is rare
But we just said 'Have some faith, yo' - 'Don't be a square!'
We rolled out a patch around seven or eight
And you yelled to the devs 'Yo homes did us a favor!'
We looked to our kingdom
It was finally there
To sit on the throne as the game that's most fair...
