PUDGE HOOK WARS V2.7d + AI
Created by Flux

Map Info:

Experience the Dota 2 Pudge Gameplay on Warcraft 3. In Pudge Hook Wars, play as Pudge the Butcher with Dota 2 Graphics, Sounds and certain Items. Kill other players with your infamous Meat Hook as they roam the map.


Players start with 2 Abilities (Meat Hook and Dismember). Abilities can be learned upon buying from the Abilities Shop which includes the "Rot" ability that allows you to perform the Pudge Standard 'Meat Hook - Rot - Dismember' Combo.

There are also items that modifies your Pudge's Meat Hook (Hook Modifiers) such as Hook Lifesteal, Rupture Hook, Flaming Hook, Freezing Hook. Activating Hook Modifiers will change the appearance of your Meat Hook as seen below in the Screenshots. Meat Hook Damage, Range and Cooldown can also be permanently upgraded.

Lastly, Runes appear in the map every minute except the first two minutes. These Runes (Hook Damage, Invisibility, Vision, Speed, Lightning, Vitality, Gold) are very useful and can define the outcome of the clash. It is recommended to store them in a Magic Bottle for timely use.
