Use a Dummy unit to cast Shadow Strike on each target inside of a Unit Group.

Hello, I've been currently working on a custom hero for a campaign I've decided to have a go at, I've never made any Blizzard maps, but I have made plenty using Bethesda's modkits. But anywho, learning the differences has been a bit jarring, but I've managed to make some headway until I got to...

Tried to make a triggered AoE slow but it's not working - what am I doing wrong/why is it not working properly

So I made a spell based on Fan of Knives (I like the animation) and added a trigger (see below) 'cuz I wanted to throw an AoE slow on top of it. Problem is, the slow seems to only activate on one enemy each time I cast the ability instead of all nearby enemies, and I'm not sure where the issue...

Attacks are pretty unreliable, Dummy units are how you "cast spells in triggers".

Here's a map I found with an AoE dummy caster. Customize it to fit your needs.

Describe what exactly the problem is, what you intend to achieve, what doesn't happen that should happen, what does happen that shouldn't happen, show triggers, upload screenshots, draw pictures, attach map. All of these are things you can do that will make it considerably easier to help you. There is nothing I loathe more than "it doesn't work" with 0 additional information or context. What the heck do you think I can do to fix what I can't see or understand the intent of?

I understand and it's perfectly fine to be confused or lost when using the editor. All I am suggesting is that you articulate what has stopped you, why you got lost, or what you weren't able to find/understand. If you say "I couldn't figure out how to turn a hero ability into a normal unit ability" I can tell you how to change it.
