You can make it with simple trigger.

• Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters <YourRegion>
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set TempPlayerGroup = (Player group((Owner of (Triggering unit))))
    • Cinematic - Clear the screen of text messages for TempPlayerGroup
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup for 5.00 seconds the text: č č č č č č ...
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup the text:
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup the text:
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup the text:
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup the text:
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup the text:
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup the text:
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup the text:
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup the text:
    • Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup the text:
    • Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_TempPlayerGroup)

That string is: č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č č Now entering ''Name of Area''
It can't be done with Spaces.

Note that ''č'' is not visible in Warcraft III.

You missed TempString + Now entering the Arena

• Set TempString = (TempString + Now entering the Arena)

Instead of

• Set TempString = Now entering the Arena

 

[Slaydon]

TempStringNow entering the Arena
Edit: i forgot to take the Variable, i wrote it :S my bad
EDIT:
Results are bad:
