These maps were always incredibly imbalanced and you could easily win it once you found out what item or hero was OP lol.

Someone shared their map archive on reddit and the oldest Angel Arena type map I could find there was from February 2004 called "Anime Arena 5.0". No way it's the oldest version though.

I hope more people upload their old map Download folders so we can try to archive old maps like that (epicwar only goes back to 2005).

Anybody interested or willing to share their old map archives?

I love to browse through old warcraft maps and wonder if some people here still have their map folders, especially from the years 2003-2009 for nostalgia. There are also so many famous maps that are not lost that could be archived. So if someone here reading this still has maps (e.g. in their...

Be warned that most old maps someone posted in this thread can only be playable on the older versions of the game. Higher patches remove the conversion bug in some triggers, which makes old maps unplayable.

I don't know if something was done during Reforged 2.0 but I found that a lot of old maps that have been unplayable in the past are playable now for some reason (e.g. Eul's Dota). Whatever was the reason for incompatibility, I think in a lot of cases it was fixed.
