Cool_is_I, your hero is so funny to use. He is good. He is creative and what else can I say. ^_^

Just checked your triggers and they could get even even and even more shorter if you could just play with them. Seriously, there are just too many of them.

xXMephistoXx will this fix the problem?
The problem with this is that it alters the original spell.
Now instead of the extra energy bieng destroyed.
If you take in more, it will release and you spell will go to level 0
You released it so you still get a summon, i reduced its health [cuz yousummoned it so suddenly.]

Thanks! Gl on yours too!

Well it does matter. Really, it makes the game read them faster I think. Well you can shorten them into simple triggers with just if/then/else's. It's easier than using like 3 triggers which could be grouped in just one. I don't remember the right skill itself but I think you made 3 triggers just for a wait which goes down to 15 to 10 to 7. You could just make good use of If/Then/Else multiple actions.

-Release Energy-
This is a non hero spell, it is linked with Devour Energy. Basicly the more you devour the better spells this ability will hold.
------------------------------------------------------

I personally think that this is as original and as creative as heros come.
I think that this competition is a good challange.
I have put days worth of work into this hero, I even started late 8D.
Equal scared me....[by doing this he scared me into comming up with a passive ability asap] 8D
Thanks xXMephistoXx helped me sort out a few issues.

Good Luck to all, may the best mapper win.

cool_is_i, you have alot of typos. lemme point them out:

Devour energy:
"They say that lightnig is pure energy"
should be
"They say that lightning is pure energy"

Release Energy (2):
"take more damage.Roh can also"
should be
"take more damage. Roh can also"

Release Energy (3):
"with it a creatur of pure"
should be
"with it a creature of pure"

Death Blade:
"Those who are stron enough"
should be
"Those who are strong enough"

Elemental Blades:
"wield his elemental baldes"
should be
"wield his elemental blades"

Wield Fire Blades:
aoe should be capitalised (AOE (Abbreviation))

Hope I helped you (and didn't offend you) :)

Most of them were just typos/missed keys anyway :)

My Competition entry

Ok guys, here is my final entry for THW Hero Competition #1; My hero ist a Blood Elven High Inquisitor with following ablilities:

Exorcism - Damages an inimical target by torturing everything evil in its soul. When the target is a summoned unit, the High Inquisitor will restore 80 mana to nearby allied units. Also interrupts channelling spells.

Words of Clemency - Heals nearby allied units.

Aura of Encouragement - If a nearby friendly target is hit by an enemy, a chance exists that 10 hit points will be restored for allied units around the victim.

Sale of Indulgences
- Removes all buffs from nearby units and gives 20 gold per affected target to the High Inquisitor's owner.

Hope you all enjoy. Good luck to all the other contestants :thumbs_up:

p.s. comments r welcome ;D

[*]Judging Criteria:
  • Is the hero original and well thought-out?
  • How balanced is the hero with default Warcraft III heroes?
  • Is the hero fun to play in the game?
  • How balanced, effective and original are the hero's spells?
  • How well presented is the hero in the submitted map?
[/list][/INDENT]


It says "How well present is the hero", so I'm guessing a good setup is necessary for a good grade.

Yeah but probly minor grade, tbh. Agree? Agree.

Does the maps have to be turned in the 31st, or the 1st?
I've been grounded and only posting on times I could sneak on(if dramatic daily post drop was noticed, probably not), but was ungrounded today and i've been making lots of progress, I could have it done by 31st but I just want to make sure if I got till 1st or not.

On a side not, this will be the first map i've turned into the hive ^.^
All my rest i'm spending extra time on because i'm lazy XD

Well IMO, the presentation shouldn't be in the criteria. Well does that really effect the hero itself? No... Will it help users of the hero? No... It's just eye candy. Well since I joined, I got nothing to do but accept the rule :p

Thanks for finding the errors.
Quick glance?
I just presented it well thats all.
I want people to really check out my hero!
I put alot of work into him,
Ill bet every one here did, i think all of them deserve more than a quick glance!

BTW by presentation i think thy mean how well the spells are explained.

Agreed. But I think its minor thing. And for me I would give full points for presentation if you can cast the spells fast (no cooldown), lots of enemies and mana/health pots.

*Edit* Also changed skin of my hero, but Im not sure if it looks any cooler.
