Explanation about Worgen race:
Due to worgen models are few, I had to use gnoll models because they are the most fitting ones. When I find adequate models, they will be imported into the map.

Half of the things mentioned by Kobas have been changed, however please change the following things as well:

Also I suggest you add a custom preview image:

I'd love to check an un-optimized version of this map.
If you want me to I could check your triggers.

EDIT:
I've tested the map.
You can't get gold fast, I can't build anything with the worker (Blood Elf)
And the heroes are just standard heroes, there's still ALOT of work left to do on this map :eek:

Ok map works and it's nice to play as well, but generally speaking quality is low.
For example if player don't play (and I guess leave) his base will still be there.
Units don't have abilities and can't be upgraded.
Some aren't balanced well as well.
No multiboard/leaderboard.
Poor items for heroes.
Heroes have 10 levels only.
No custom events, sounds, special effects, terrain details etc etc.

Please improve at least half of this listed above and map quality will be improved by 100% - 200% for sure.

Heya mate, I downloaded this map today, and I tested it out for a while. After I looked into details and messed around with it, I think that it's safe to say that this map needs some work in it. In my opinion, It's very plain and dull. I mean, there's not much to it, it's just regular units and heroes.. nothing special.
Here's what I think of the map:

-Cons-

[×] Terrain is too plain and simple. Try adding some customized grass and doodads.
[×] Heroes have default Warcraft III abilities which makes them boring to play. Create customized abilities, icons, animation etc.
[×] Check for your grammar mistakes. When I clicked on one the circles to choose a hero, I've noticed that one of the circles said "pick herode" which I'm assuming you meant "pick hero".
[×] Game play is very boring. It seems like the objective of the game is to just make units and upgrade them as soon as you reach the necessary amount of gold to upgrade units and then destroy the opposing side. Add some special events or something that brings action to the game.
[×] Items for heroes are a little too plain and common. They just give straight out stats. Maybe create items that have special effects and cool features like "chance on hit, to cast chain lighting" (not to actually make an item like that, its just an example).
[×] Units are pretty much the default Warcraft 3 units. The only thing you customized them on is the skin and the amount of damage they cause. Make them have minor abilities, but not strong abilities like heroes have. Add spells like abolish magic, raise skeletons, poison attack etc. But I would suggest to not use the default Warcraft III abilities, make them them a bit different that way you give the game more originality and uniqueness.

-Intermidiate+
[×/] Lacks hero variety. Would be better if players had the option to pick between 4 or 5 heroes instead of 2.

+Pros+

[] Game is lag free
[] Game is bug free
[] Idea of the map isn't too bad
[] Nicely customized units and heroes
[] Well made skins

Conclusion: The game itself requires a lot work, but the idea of the map is not bad. I think that this map can be rather fun and entertaining to play and maybe have potential if the necessary fixes are done. Other than that, the game seems to be working well and functioning correctly. Good luck mate! :thumbs_up:
