I played this map and cannot say many good things about it. The only one of them for me is that this map is playable. The heroes are nothing special. Some of them has less some more spells what is horrible minus for the map. The skills are basic wc3 skills, sometimes very little remaked. There is good number of items, but most of them are basic wc3 too. To all of this is coming the fact, that you used camera lock, what is terrible, because you cannot have a look at the whole battleground. It makes gameplay horrible and funless. You are just standing and waiting for enemy, which will luckily find you somewhen. Overall I vote this map 2/5.

Yes, well, most heroes have more spells than levels, but that was something I wanted to implement.
The idea behind this choice is that I want to let players not only decide what hero they want to play, but also how they want to play the hero they chose, leaving multiple choices of spells.
This leads to more diversity and makes the gameplay more exciting, because you know what hero your enemy/enemies has/have, but never know what spells they have learned, until they first attack.
Therefore I gave each hero more spell levels.

In the future, I will try to give all heroes the same amount of spell levels.

If a player thinks he has chosen a wrong spell combination, or if he sees that his current spell combo is inefficient, then there always is the Tome of Retraining that is available at the Legendary Items shop.

As for the camera, well in next versions I will probably add a choice for each player to decide the way they want the camera : free or locked.

Anyway, thank you for your feedback. Many things will hopefully be fixed/changed in the newer versions.
