Escape from Death Coil Training

[Avatars Lord]

Sold my items:

• Bought a tome of retraining used my skill points to the wolves.
• Bought a tome of restoration and potion of invulnerability.
• Ez win.

Well, it is very simple even for a mini-game. If the only reason for creating this map is to improve reflexes against death coil then nevermind the rest. If not:

1. You could increase the player slots.
2. More game-play by adding a maze or some sort to be more challenging.
3. You could add useful abilities rather than using the basic abilities.
4. Being a mini-game you could add some fun stuff.
5. Terrain lacks.
6. Your description needs some attention.

Like I said, right now it is too simple. Let your creativity run through this map and make it epic.

Avatars Lord, thanx for review. Yes, its simple map. And like you said "only reason for creating this map is to improve reflexes against death coil then nevermind...". Thats all I need, because training maps is about basic elements (abilities, stats...).

Maybe in future I will reduce a count of Player's gold and add one more ghoul.

There was an issue with latest update of this map, so I just reupload it again.

- Now map is .w3m
- Far Seer's starting life increased from 10% to 30%.
- Ziggurat replaced by Spirit Tower.
- Added environment doddads on map.
- Reduced count of Player's gold to 500.
- Added 1 Abomination that patrol the middle of the map.
- Ghoul and Abomination are maximum upgraded.
- Death Knight is 6 leveled hero.
- Map is totally visible for Undead player.

You should upgrade the Description it's a bit bad
You need to attract more players by Attracting them you need Screenshots some introduction

Rating : 8/10

If you destroy the Spirit Tower first, you win.
Anyway, this map's concept, design and gameplay is too simple, sorry.

Substandard.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION

• A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  
• A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  
• Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.

What? Substandard? ))) Its a typical micro training map. Did you ever hear about Micro Training genre? Maps of this genre is always simple, because its about standard units, spells, and melee situations in variation "double-hard". Sometimes its a bunch of mini-games... Sometimes its a wall-on-wall fights between a standard units. Sometimes it about spell-casting training, like my map.
I'am not pretend on hard-coded creation with hard situations between players... No... Its just an example that shows that all genious may be simple. Anyway, thanx for aproving.

Well, if you decide to do a whole map with only stuff like this, you know like various challenges based on melee micro and maybe macro managing and tactics, then I'll see it differently.
You can ask the other reviewers for re-moderation in case you feel I am unfair to you.

Thats OK, you not unfair. You will see differently uniques of my micro challenges, if will play it by yourself. Maybe can offer more harder situations and ideas for training in future?
...And think about to add one more genre in Hive map section like "Micro Training" or "Micro Wars", so my maps will be less substandard for users.

Nah. There is a line to be crossed what mini means. It's about the time it takes to play not that you make a map in 5 minutes with the editor.

 

[Avatars Lord]

Best thing to do is to make a big-ass map with tons of trainings. That way people could train in a lot of way ways, faster and efficient.

It dosent matter how much minutes I spend to create a map.

I agree with that. Maybe later someone will make that map from my open-source bunch.

If I want to win, I don't need to escape from any death coil at all. The only stuff to buy is the Tome of Retraining, with it I can learn Feral Spirit. Summon the wolves and let them attack the tower. Travel through the Way Gate repeatedly, never let DK to get closed to you. Win!
