Shadow Fury: The map is rejected since it lacks too much of quality. The abilities are clear surrogates of default skills, active spells deal insignificant damage, items are not balanced, the terrain is very unattractive because it is flat and lacks decoration + tile variation, the gameplay is not enjoyable and there are active icons for passive skills. All these issues force me to reject the map.

Review Pandaren Defence 1.8

Visuals - Ambience and Aesthetics

The choice of custom doodads is enjoyable and they match each other. There is an atmosphere of Pandaria in the air.

BoLteX, as Arad MNK already said, no tile variation is not acceptable.
Try to add more different tiles, maybe bricks for the village, and a darker green as additional tile for the environment. If you struggle with it, take a look on the tutorial section here on Hive for some great tutorials concerning terrain creation.

You could also think about the doodad size, maybe increase the size of the buildings, as buildings are bigger than unit, aren't they.
Different sizes also give your map a more enjoyable ambience, as it makes the environment looks more natural.
The tutorials on Hive also contain command highly recommended for terraining, make sure to ake a look on them.
( Advice: CTRL+F to search for keywords like 'Terrain' or 'Forest')

In its current state, the visuals are already matching the maps overall theme, but you could work more on it, BoLteX, especially concerning the tile variation and the doodad size.

Gameplay and Features

The different hero choices offer different gameplay and style. Different items allow the player to focus on different item builds.

But, BoLteX, your map is totally lacking balance.
While the waves aren't too strong and average difficult, especially with having the well in the back, the items are completely unbalanced. On the one-hand site the gold/kill cost seems overall fine, the item bonus on the other site is often very unbalanced.
10% attack speed, 5% life-steal, 300 hit point ? While it is a bonus that shouldn't be underestimated I would never bother to buy them and instead saving for higher items that are worth the money.
BoLteX, you could balance the item build order. Make the early items a bit stronger, to make sure they offer support the player can get use of.

A big thing that you have to fix, yes, have to, are the passive icons. They are active and have a hotkey information. You can easily create passive icons with the Button Manager. Also, remove the hotkey information from them, they rather confuse.

You could also think about adding a quest log to give basic information about your map like victory and defeat conditions, features, gameplay, credits and map source.

The gameplay in a common X Hero Siege style is enjoyable, but you need to fix some things.
Additional, you could think about some more features, like more hidden bosses, item crafts, special events and such, they might give your map additional taste.

Result

Pandaren Defence is an interesting defence game in a known X Hero Siege style. Different heroes and items allow an average customization of the hero's stats.

In its current state, BoLteX, you have to fix the tile variation and you could add different sizes to the current doodads.
You also should fix the passive icons, as well as thinking about the items.
