HoN - graphics (but its individual), more challenging, denying can be essential for some players, familiar to DoTa players...

LoL - originality, more familiar to starting moba players, more elaborated CC system, tends to reverse the course of the battle which can lead to interesting and gripping matches. (HoN: gold lose when killed, later on you just have no chance to turn fight)...

big factor (IMO) is also about your friends, which one they play. I expect you want to play with you friends (although i have both friends playing LoL and friends playing HoN)
