I dont understand how cranium basher is imbalanced? the item is available for everyone, and it can't be stacked,as they share a cooldown.
If multiple heroes are easy to win with, then that makes the game balanced. If everyone is overpowered, no one is.
Once again, squishy stealth heroes are squishy, and easily countered by wards, or slardar/gondar.

As for how you counter the heroes that are rediculously easy to win with, I'm assuming you are talking about AA caries, like AM or void. AM is a bit of a problem, but characters like obsidian destroyer can outcarry him. Any other AA carry can be ganked, and since they lose gold, they can't carry without farm.

I'm assuming you haven't played Dota in a while and don't understand that they have patched it to make it more balanced.

I don't have a soft spot for Dota, I've played all three of them, and HoN was actually the first one I played(I started in the beta days of HoN).

Losing gold to death in conbination with denying means it's much easier in Dota to stop carries from well, carrying.

there are just too many heroes that are ridiculously easy to win with in Dota

All you have mentioned is Phantom lancer/phantom assassin. They are extremely squishy early/mid game, focus fire them, gank them, and win.

Every hero has a counter, that's what makes Dota balanced.

I'm sorry, but you haven't given any reasons for why LoL is more balanced than Dota, or even more balanced than HoN, you are just stating your opinion as fact.

Sorry, this pretty much disqualifies your opinion then.. Dota had already been going for 4-5 years when HoN was in beta.. and I was in beta for LoL as well.
