[Credits where credits are due can be found in game under the quest tab, however, I'd like to give a shoutout to xXMephistoXx, who has made many of the triggered spells found in this map. He has enabled me to create the heroes found in the map the way I envisioned them, and how I wanted them to play, Thanks a lot for your hard work.]
What is this map about?
This map is a Team Hero Arena in a maze, basically. Each team can have up to 6 players. The main objective in the game is to get 20 team kills before the other team. The first to 20 kills wins. Teamwork is really important in this map, traveling in groups will really help your team out. Running around a dark maze solo will not get your team closer to achieving victory. I really suggest starting the games with at least 5v5 [4v4 at the least] The more people in the game, the more action there is. It's a maze. If you have a game that's 2v2, chances are things won't pick up as fast as you want them to.
What makes this different from any other hero arena?
-You will not find annoying, complex, item recipies in this map. This map is really about working as a team, and knowing how to use your heroes, so that you can come out the winner. The items found in the map are simple and straight forward. I wanted people to focus more on the heroes, the game, and killing each other, than trying to get superduper omnipowerful dagger of awesomeness [requires Sheild of 1337sauce, boots of godlyness, Sword of Pwnzord] [my attempt at humor]
- The map's settings take place in a maze, which adds some strategical thinking to battling in this arena. There are caves through out the map that makes it easier from getting one side of the maze to the other. There are also gates in the map that randomly open and close, providing unique gameplay for players, as well as a chance of luck to get away from your openents [or, for the unlucky, be trapped by them]
- There are 3 flags spread through out the map which your team can capture. Capturing these flags awards experience to the hero that captures the flag, and gold for the whole team who gets a flag captured.
What else is there?
- 19 Heroes, most of which have at least one triggered ability. Other abilities are altered from blizzard spells. Each hero has a role that they can play in their team. You will find no useless heroes here. [more heroes will come in later versions]
- A fairly balanced map [though balance is still being worked upon]
- A miniy "helping system". What this means is, if a player should leave during the game play, all players on the team get a boost of experience points, to help deal with the loss of a team mate.
- Weird references and a sense of humor. [Such as the hero "Druid of Druidic Druidism", and the spell "Trading Spaces"]
